Description

Have you ever wanted to find out what it actually feels like to blast off into Space and then fly back through the fire and heat of re-entry from someone who has done it?  Not once, but three times?  


This is your chance!  You and 5 of your friends can spend an evening enjoying a gourmet dinner in a home environment with Hall of Fame Astronaut Karol J. "Bo" Bobko, Pilot of the First Flight of the Challenger Space Shuttle, Commander of a Discovery Space Shuttle Mission, and Commander of the First Flight of the Atlantis Space Shuttle. 


This private event with Bo and his wife, Dianne, includes hors d'oeuvres, dinner with wine, AND personal ‘Space Stories’, viewing and discussing space memorabilia, and a  video viewing of "Pictures from Space" narrated by Bo.  There will also be an autographed space picture and mission patch for each guest.

Some people seem to have a destiny and that’s the case with Karol “Bo” Bobko, a member of the Astronaut Hall of Fame. A resident of Half Moon Bay, Bobko grew up in New York and was a member of the very first graduating class of the Air Force Academy in 1959. After being accepted into the NASA Astronaut program it would take 12 long years before Bobko would achieve his dreams of flying in space. Bobko was the pilot on the maiden voyage of the space shuttle Challenger (STS-6), the commander for Discovery (STS-51-D) and commander for the maiden flight of Atlantis (STS-51-J). Bobko has also seen his share of heartbreak while working with NASA. He was a close friend of the crew of the ill-fated Challenger flight that occurred on January 26, 1986.
