Perhaps There Was An Age Where People Dreamed of The Possibilities In The Outer Space

2009.05.11

i am a space nerd, there's just no other way to say it.

since as far back as i can remember i've always wanted to be an astronaut. i wanted to fly, to see the earth from above and the heavens as well.

there's something about being blasted into space on top of one-hundred thousand gallons of liquid explosives that's made by the highest bidder that can't be matched by much else.

i'm pretty sure it's the same thing that compels me to be a war photographer.

the adventure, the thrill, the fear all of it sounded amazing, and a life i wanted to live. the unfortunate part about it is that my eyes went south and are out of range to be considered for astronaut candidacy, even though i am correctable to 20/20...so i decided to be a photographer.

...or maybe it was all the toonami when i was younger...

willcravens Ah, it's not easy to be an astronaut anyway. My uncle worked for NASA for years and never got a chance to actually go up in space. It's EXTREMELY competitive (because everyone wants to go into space). So really you've just saved years of wasting time and disappointment when your time never came. Just putting it in perspective. I think you made the right choice anyway. : )
