OK, Milt. I'll bite the bait. Who are you related to

One is a now retired astronaut/Navy Captain with the Apollo and Skylab programs, and yes he walked on the Moon. I am not very close with him.

Another is a now deceased engineer who worked with the shuttles. He died way to young of cancer of the bone in 1999. We were close growing up and the man was a bona fide genius. He was a heck of a poker player too, and even got banned from a casino. He wasn't a cheat he just could recall what cards had been played.

I agree that science is based on fact, yet if those facts are inaccurate or fudged, whatever it is being studied is worthless.
