Gone East: David Brown, Astronaut

David Brown, Astronaut

David Brown was one of the crewmembers who died yesterday on Columbia. His grilfriend shared this quote from a message he sent to her from space:

I will make one more observation - if I'd been born in space I know I would desire to visit the beautiful Earth more than I've ever yearned to visit to space. It is a wonderful planet.
