TLS signed “Jack,” one page, 8.5 x 11, personal letterhead, July 13, 1984. Letter to an admirer. In part: “Why did I decide to become an astronaut? I was an exchange student in Norway in 1957 when the Soviet Union shocked the world by launching the first artificial satellite of the earth. I observed first-hand the profound impact this event had on the international student community…There was wonder at this first reach by mankind in the new ocean of space; there was fear that the oppressive Soviet civilization would dominate humankind through use of its new technological prowess.” In fine condition, with some scattered light edge creases.
