Scott Parazynski Sends Memorial Flags To Mt. Everest
It was an appropriately high-reaching manner, we think, to honor
fallen astronauts and cosmonauts. Dr. Scott Parazynski, a 16 year
veteran of the NASA astronaut corps and avid mountain climber
traveled to Mount Everest earlier this spring in hopes of ascending
a mountain he had aspired to his whole life. While on the summit he
had planned to tie off two special memorial flags in honor of
fallen astronauts and cosmonauts.
