I got a love for space in childhood, somewhere at the age of five. I dreamed of seeing all this inaccessible to me, higher, further! & then I bought a telescope and now ... Well, I will say that I fell in love with these space things because of love the unknown.
Favourite astronaut?
It's hard to say, because all astronauts are such cute boys !!
OK.
Top 5 - John Young, Mike Collins, Neil Armstrong, Frank Borman, Ed White.
Babe ❤️
Some photos of Mike as a little one, taken throughout his childhood in Rome, Oklahoma, New York, Maryland, and Puerto Rico

Back during the Charlie Sheen meltdown days, the NASA tumblr fandom posted a bunch of “NASA Sheenisms,” aka Charlie Sheen quotes superimposed upon astronaut photos. This was one of my contributions.
“The word “shy” and all of its synonyms are as much a John Young trademark as the wisp of straight, dark hair that constantly tumbles across his forehead and occasionally peeks out from under his bulbous white space helmet.”
— The Atlanta Journal, March 13, 1965 (via awwyeahjohnyoung)
GAWD please guys tell me which video this photo is from?
I have problems finding content due to location, but I'm trying to find a video. Maybe I'm not such a lucky person ... Anyway. If anyone knows from which video this photo for God's sake tell me! I'll shower you with hearts in advance, guys!!
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

does anyone else get really freaking frustrated that they missed the mercury-gemini-apollo era or am i just a freak
Hahahaha
When searching for photos and information regarding our favorite space heroes, one wonderful website is johnwyoung.org. Along with quotes, links, and a whole lotta stuff about our favorite John Young, there are some excellent photos, like the one shown above. It seems to be an ordinary shot of the Apollo 10 crews during breakfast, but no, John has to make a face. No normal picture this time. It also appears he is looking at the glass of orange juice in front of him…
It's me.
This is how I go to bed with thoughts of John Young.
(thank ya dissolve & yeah I luv ya watermark)
