I think he inspired alot of people. Not to mention he contributed so much to Americas space program and Space Camp was his idea. I wonder what he would think of space camp today. Too bad he didnt live to see it happen.

I'm sure he'd be thrilled. Space Camp inspires kids all the time and has probably helped the space program a lot.

Its s till too bad he didnt live long enough to see that dream become a reality. In a since we owe space camp to him as well since it was really his idea.
