I bought a 2nd hand copy of 'Rocket Science' from Amazon which was delivered today..



Opening it I found it had been signed by Shuttle astronauts Rick Hauck, Fred Gregory, and Hoot Gibson smile The signatures weren't mentioned in the description when I bought it, so a bit of a bonus smile

I'm no graphologist but I wouldn't guess, from those signatures, that they were astronaut material. They look quite shambolic.

Have you ever seen or heard "Hoot" Gibson?

He's not called "Hoot" for nothing smile

I said "Hoot", not "Honk".

Read "Riding Rockets"£ by Mike Mullane ( a fellow Shuttle astronaut) to get an insight into Gibson's character.
