Remembering Astronaut Heroes Who Gave Their Lives Furthering the Exploration of Space
Eternal Father, King of birth, Who didst create the heaven and earth, And bid the planets and the sun Their own appointed orbits run; O hear us when we seek thy grace For those who soar through outer space. from the Navy Hymn |

in a risky business, and we hope if anything happens to us, it will not
delay the program. The conquest of space is worth the risk of life." --Virgil I. Grissom, Commander, Apollo 1 (speaking a few weeks before his death in the Apollo 1 fire) |
