'My Friend Orion'
NASA
The words of Laurel Clark describing her reaction to seeing the well known winter constellation in an e-mail sent from the Space Shuttle Columbia three years ago today. Tomorrow is the third anniversary of the fatal re-entry that took the lives of Laurel Clark and her crewmates of the Columbia STS-107 mission.
One of these nights when the sky is clear, dress warmly and go out and look at the constellation of Orion. Think about those men and women from planet Earth who have begun our journey to the stars and those who will follow in order to provide resources and opportunities for future generations.
