Notes & Asides

Dear Mr. Buckley:

I would like to invite you and Mrs. Buckley to the launch of space shuttle mission STS-76 from the Kennedy Space Center, the morning of March 21, 1996. Unfortunately, my crew will be departing the planet quite early that morning (3:30 a.m.), but I think that you would find the event most enjoyable to witness. Television does not come close to doing justice to a shuttle launch, particularly a night launch.
