  1. A smile for the ages

    They say a picture is worth a thousand words. If so, I have one for you. It came to mind last week when I heard of the death of Neil Armstrong, famed for being the first to set foot upon the Moon. His boyish face appeared on many photos through the years, as a Korean fighter pilot, civilian test pilot and eventually as one of the second group of astronauts selected by NASA. After John Kennedy's challenge to land on the moon before decade's end, one of the men in this second group that called themselves the "Next Nine" or the "Nifty Nine" — in contrast to the "Original Seven" astronauts — was destined to be the first to touch the lunar surface. And Mr. Armstrong became the one.

  10. Rex Walheim goes from space to Colorado Boulevard

    This year’s Rose Parade will include a brotherly duo unlike any other — one is an astronaut and the other a rose expert, and both will greet onlookers from the fifth float in the Tournament of Roses. Rex Walheim, 49, has five space walks under his belt and has journeyed to low earth orbit three times on space shuttle Atlantis — including its final run in July. (He once joked on Twitter: “I don’t fly in space often, but when I do, I only fly on Atlantis.”)
