Manage episode 359063543 series 2932341
Before his final senate term was up, John Glenn became the oldest person to fly in space (a record that would stand until 2021. After retiring from the senate, he continued to teach public policy and preach public service at the John Glenn College of Public Affairs at Ohio State University. He also continued to see the world with his beloved wife, Annie. She even convinced him to appear on an episode of the award winning sitcom, Frasier.
Glenn lived a full life. Though he was the oldest of the Mercury Seven astronauts, he was also the last one to leave us, in 2016 at age 95.
The Space Race series introduction music is Lift Off by kennysvoice.
