On June 03, 1965, NASA sent astronaut Ed White on a 23 minute space walk. Most likely in response to Russia's prior successful spacewalk and not wanting to be outdone. Nevertheless Ed embarked on a trip that very few will ever experience. Ed "walked" about 187 miles above the surface of Hawaii. Unless an astronaut reads my little blog none of us will ever get to float in space, look down on the planet, down on all the human drama playing out underneath. None of us will float in solitude, staring out into the darkness, and maybe, just maybe have that feeling of being watched by something hidden amongst the stars.
