We are saddened by the passing of Jim Lovell, commander of Apollo 13 and a four-time spaceflight veteran. Lovell's life and work inspired millions. His courage under pressure helped forge our path to the Moon and beyond—a journey that continues today. go.nasa.gov/41tbrpq

Bjarni flew aboard Space Shuttle Discovery on Aug.7, 1997. He spent over 11 days in space, where he operated a Canadian technology he helped develop: the Microgravity Vibration Isolation Mount. During his career, he wrote more than 50 published papers and held three patents.

Wonderful morning to fly out to Simcoe (Port Dover) via Brantford. @spectrumairways instagram.com/p/CSzYaqcrXPM/…
A little hazy and low cloud dodging, but beautiful morning for a first post pandemic solo. @spectrumairways @ Mountsberg Conservation Area instagram.com/p/CRZdTDihUsr/…
Sad to hear. “The Dream is Alive” was something my dad and I watched at the IMAX Theatre at KSC every year when I was growing up.
I’m sad to learn that Graeme Ferguson, co-founder of IMAX, has passed away. I enjoyed all the large format films that he directed, but especially the shuttle ones like Hail Columbia & The Dream is Alive. It was the next best thing to actually being there. tgam.ca/2RTYbt8
