Astronaut Scrubbed From Apollo 13 Dies At 87

Handout file photo dated May 29, 1982 shows astronauts Thomas K. (Ken) Mattingly II, center foreground, and Henry W. Hartsfield Jr., both wearing pressure garments, leave the operations and checkout building at KSC to board a special van that will take them to Launch Pad 39A for a rehearsal for their liftoff. Ken Mattingly, astronaut scrubbed from apollo 13, is dead at 87. He later orbited the moon, but in 1970 he was bumped from the Apollo flight after being exposed to measles. Then, from mission control, he helped it avert disaster. Photo by Nasa via ABACAPRESS.COM

                      US Air Force To Launch Seventh X-37B Mission

                      Handout photo dated May 7, 2017 shows the U.S. Air Force's X-37B Orbital Test Vehicle 4 is seen after at NASA 's Kennedy Space Center Shuttle Landing Facility in Florida. The U.S. Space Force is preparing for the launch of the enigmatic X-37B space plane aboard a SpaceX Falcon Heavy rocket. Taking place at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida on December 7th, the upcoming mission, known as USSF-52, marks a significant milestone as it will be the first time the X-37B launches on a Falcon Heavy. While the X-37B’s capabilities and operations remain shrouded in secrecy, the Space Force has shed some light on its mission objectives. The upcoming flight will build upon previous missions that utilized the X-37B as a platform for launching and testing experimental payloads before safely returning them to Earth.
