Godspeed, John Glenn

lyrics

5, 4, 3, 2, 1; booster ignition, and liftoff of Discovery with a crew of six astronaut heroes, and one American legend...

CAPCOM: Godspeed, John Glenn


Glenn: Roger, I do have the lights in sight on the ground. Over.

Cooper: John, is it just off to your right there?

Glenn: That’s affirmative. Just to my right I can see a big pattern of lights

Cooper: Perth and Rockingham, you’re seeing there.

Glenn: Roger. The lights show up very well and thank everybody for turning them on, will you?


Glenn: ...like little stars. A whole shower of them coming by. They swirl around the capsule and go in front of the window and they’re all brilliantly lighted...but I can see them all down below me, also.

CAPCOM: Roger, Friendship Seven. Can you hear any impact with the capsule? Over.

Glenn: They’re going at the same speed I am approximately.

Glenn: This is Friendship 7 broadcasting in the blind, sunrise has come up behind in the periscope; it was brilliant in the scope, a brilliant red as it approached the horizon
