While we are on this topic, one of my favorite items I own is a copy of the "Young Peoples Book of the Year" from 1966 which has been autographed by Ed White on the cover. As most know, Ed White tragically died when he, Gus Grissom and Robert Chaffee where caught inside the oxygen-rich command module during an Apollo 1 test. There is no question, however, that without their sacrifice, man would never have reached the moon.
