Back in the 1980s, one of the Space Shuttles which was riding piggyback on a transport Airplane flew low over Jackson,Mississippi, flying low so us backwater hicks could get a good look up thar at it.I think it was at Parham Bridges Park in Jackson where it was advertized on tv noos.I went over there to get a good looksee. I was working at Delta Cotton Oil in Jackson when the first Space Shuttle went up into orbit, in 1981.I worked in the solvent extraction plant at Delta Cotton Oil, Hexane (Hexane is kin to lighter fluid, Very Flammable stuff!) fluid in there for extracting the oil from the cotton seeds, so of course no radios or anything else that could cause a spark was allowed in there. cuhulin Ah, Benzene rings! I love them! |
