Now that's great news on a #SpeedyTuesday... Florida Today website https://eu.floridatoday.com/story/t...-anniversary-kennedy-space-center/1118398001/
I like George Clooney, he did save the Ghent Altarpiece from the Germans, but I think the headline of the article should have read "Astronauts, George Clooney to attend black-tie event at Kennedy Space Center"
Indeed a private black tie event with some Omega sponsored Apollo-era astronauts attending ( Stafford, Duke, ...)
I have a feeling Omega's Speedmaster-themed IG posts over these past few days are building up to this event...
I’m going. Don’t know what to expect, but hoping to see some new stuff! The title of the event is “Golden Moments”, so I definitely think that leaves room for surprises!
50 years is celebrated as a " Golden " anniversary and we all agree Omega did an excellent superb job on the Gold Speedmaster as it's 100% true to the spirit of the 1969 Apollo XI tribute Gold Speedmaster that was given to at least 35 astronauts... It looks like our Steel expectations topic points to a two-tone " Metal Magic " Speedmaster chronograph, while most of us really expected a real Steel 1969-2019 version... I suppose Social Media will be something to follow up the next few days...
as we speak… today 9th May 2019... probably there might be additional info/news on the Apollo 10 event on 18th May 2019
Noticed Tom Stafford & Charlie Duke in the photographs but not sure if Edwin Buzz Aldrin was at this event ? Next event = May 18th = 50 years Apollo 10
Buzz could not make it due to health reasons,according to: https://www.orlandosentinel.com/spa...0190510-rov7uvhnbrgr5osy42xcnlszfq-story.html
