For the other Astronuts out there

I live in a conundrum : F16's flying just above the overcast ; Auroras predicted overhead but are as usual blocked by clouds. Always so close but so far. Hopeful and Disappointed in a single moment of anticipation.

 

I 'lived' near a few air facilities. NAS Oceania at Norfolk, VA; NAF Sigonella, Sicily; NAF Oceanside (Top Gear ground scenes); Miramar Marine Air Facility, California, an unnamed base in southern Georgia, used for Covert Ops hilos (SEAL taxis). More, probably, who remembers.
