When astronaut Michael Collins took his family to Disney World he dropped them off, then hung out in the parking lot until they were ready to go home.
@geekysteven Since the day I learned of Michael Collins, I've been feeling bad for him.
@geekysteven There are things on earth high-g training doesn't prepare you for.
@geekysteven this is the kind of deep, weird nerd humor I am entirely here for
@geekysteven I somehow don’t like these jokes.
I learned about the landing on the moon as a little child and never considered that Michael Collins had somehow been “less” to the moon than Armstrong and Aldrin.
My father has been wearing this coin ever since the moon landing and so do I now, after he passed away.
To me it’s a reminder what can be achieved when humans are working together.
@geekysteven I seriously read this at first like Collins wasn’t a fan of disneyworld
