RIP Edgar D. Mitchell

Suitguy is not bitter.

feels he represents the many educated and rational onlookers who believe that the hysterical denouncement of lay scepticism is both unwarranted and counter-productive

The problem, then, is that such calls do not address an opposition audience so much as they signal virtue. They talk past those who need convincing. They ignore actual facts and counterargument. And they are irreparably smug.

And that means half of the moonwalkers are now gone.

The ones remaining: Buzz Aldrin (11), Alan Bean (12), David Scott (15), John Young (16), Gene Cernan (17) and Harrison Schmitt (17).
