just in case anyone is confused and thinking this is a call out post for the poster GODSPEED JOHN GLENN, no, john glenn died. :(

GODSPEED JOHN GLENN


I put my thumb up my bum and shut one eye, and my thumb blotted out the planet Earth.


Yes, hello, here I am! It's me, BYOB Superstar GODSPEED JOHN GLENN here to say hello. Coincidentally enough, former astronaut and senator John Glenn(no relation) recently passed away. I wish there were some phrase that we could use to commemorate his passing. I've thought of several phrases such as, "See ya later, Johnny!" or "Adios Señor Glenn!" but nothing seems to be fitting enough. Ah well.

maybe we can wish the last john glenn travels at the greatest of speed, like even the speed of a celestial being of some sort. angel speed? doesn't quite seem fast enough for a man of his caliber.

Technically, John Glenn's capsule, Friendship 7, achieved orbital insertion at a relative ground speed of 17,544 mph.

the whole friendship-7 mission looks utterly terrifying looking back at it with modern standards of still-dangerous spaceflight... but like, shortly after he got going, they discovered that it appeared that his heat shield / landing bag may not actually be firmly attached to the spacecraft anymore, so that was certainly cause for concern, as he'd incinerate immediately hitting the atmosphere. he struggled with constantly rising suit temperature, and adjusted his suit to cool himself... only to find humidity alarms going off, because the condensation from the cooling on his suit. excess humidity meant controls might start short circuiting, so he had to balance humidity and overheating, which didn't seem easy. on re-entry he became concerned his heat shield was disintegrating, along with an extreme corkscrew on his way down that seemed like it might threaten his capability to prepare for landing. once clear and the chutes opened, he has to be reminded to deploy the landing bag manually (though he probably would have remembered!).

he got recovered by a navy boat and it was planned for him to leave through the upper hatch, but he decided it was too hot to attempt it, decided to blow the side hatch with the explosives bolts and told everyone to get out of the way. slamming the plunger down, he actually cut his knuckles through his glove, but got out that way. His first words off the capsule were, "It was hot in there."
