Miguel Sanchez Posted March 24 Author Share Posted March 24 Week 12 update Two deaths this week. Up first, astronaut Thomas P. Stafford: https://inews.co.uk/news/astronaut-thomas-stafford-commander-of-apollo-10-has-died-at-age-93-2963283 Quote Astronaut Thomas P Stafford – who commanded a dress rehearsal flight for the 1969 moon landing – has died at the age of 93. He took part in four space missions. Before Apollo 10, he flew on two Gemini flights – including the first rendezvous of two US capsules in orbit, a key milestone in the effort to get to the Moon. A retired Air Force three-star general, he died in hospital near his Space Coast Florida home, said Max Ary, director of the Stafford Air & Space Museum in Weatherford, Oklahoma. Gen Stafford was one of 24 people who flew to the moon. Only seven of them are still alive. He was also the US commander during the historic Apollo-Soyuz mission in 1975. Taking place at the height of the Cold War, it was the first link-up between an American and a Soviet spacecraft, and the first international space mission. “Today General Tom Stafford went to the eternal heavens which he so courageously explored as a Gemini and Apollo astronaut as well as a peacemaker in Apollo-Soyuz,” Nasa administrator Bill Nelson posted on X. As many as seven more who flew to the moon? Guess that's someone's theme team sorted for 2025. Though this was the only qualifying obituary for Stafford, so it might be risky. Stafford died at 93 so he's worth 32 Base Points for @Forest_Fifer. A Solo Shot takes that to 82 points. =========== Second death this week is former Luton goalkeeper Ron Baynham: Luton and England goalkeeper Ron Baynham dies aged 94 - BBC News Quote Former Luton Town and England goalkeeper Ron Baynham has died at the age of 94. Baynham made 434 appearances for the Hatters, arriving in 1951 and playing his last game for them in 1965. He earned three international caps and Luton Town said he was England's oldest surviving international player at the time of his death. And now, the story that always seems to follow these black and white goalkeepers: Quote In September 1960, he fractured his skull during a home game against Sheffield United but recovered well enough to carry on playing. Actually now that I think about it this is badly written - did he carry on playing in that match, or just some point after that match? Baynham died at 94 so he's worth 31 Base Points for @parxyz. A Solo Shot takes that to 81 points. After those, the standings look like this: 1. mozam76 402 2. Billy Jean King 380 3. lolls 316 4. Forest_Fifer 297 5. psv_killie, sparky88 291 7.
