You know, if that whole astronaut thing didn’t work out John Young could have become a great deadpan comedian.

5/16/63: “Tense Observer: Edward White II, one of the nine new astronauts, listens intently in the Mercury Control Center at Cape Canaveral Fla., as Gordon Cooper’s 22-orbit flight through space was monitored through the night. The new spacemen were observers in the control center to prepare themselves for their future role in space.”

April 4, 1968 | Dr. King used to say you have to be maladjusted to the problems, to the issues that you see around us. Robert Kennedy was maladjusted. Martin Luther King, Jr. was maladjusted. They had the ability to get in the way. Today we’re too quiet, we’re too silent. We need to find a way to push and pull, and disturb the sense of false peace, and the sense of false order that we have in our society today. I was there standing nearby when Robert Kennedy spoke those words. They were powerful then, and they’re still powerful today. No one had been able to capture the essence of what was happening in America like him. What he said was very much in keeping with the very philosophy and the discipline and nonviolence that was preached and taught by Martin Luther King, Jr. No one in America today is speaking the way Robert Kennedy spoke then. – Rep. John Lewis
