Hi, I'm a 43 year old Norwegian, relatively recently diagnosed with Asperger's.

Humanaut is clever.

Alas, you were born after the moon landing. I bet you would have enjoyed seeing the Eagle land.

Welcome to the Forums!

I don't mean to hijack this topic, but one of my favorite days ever was spent collecting autographs from astronauts and cosmonauts who were conferencing in Utah in 2005 and just walking around the conference center. My personal rock-star moment was chatting with Mercury Atlas 7 Astronaut Scott "Godspeed John Glenn" Carpenter. He was still awesome as Heck. He was the first U.S. astronaut in my lifetime (being born just a month earlier; no, I don't remember the orbit). Aside from meeting a Beatle (still waiting), that handshake was about as cool as it ever got for me.

One of my pet desires is to see the Space Program restored to its glory.

We were supposed to be on Mars by 1985!

Thanks for the welcomes.

The definition of a humanaut: a consciousness piloting itself through the temporary phenomenon known as life, in the form of a human. Any existing pre- and/or post conditions of being are yet to be discovered.
