But it turns out that out of the 4,000 that entered and the 120 people that won I was one of those 120 people.” Katelyn Crossley is shown at Fenway Park with her proud family members, husband, Steven Crossley, son, Declan and daughter, Macie prior to the start of the game’s special event. Having taught in Everett for the past 12 years, Crossley said she first became interested in the STEM curriculum after attending the district’s annual science fair. “They amp up that science fair every year,” she said, adding that the fair inspired her to launch STEM Night in 2011. Since starting the event, Crossley said, the number of companies in attendance has grown from eight to 21. “It’s all handson stuff there, I refer to it as my baby,” she said. “It’s been very successful.” City seeks Request for Interest in Norwood Street property T he City of Everett is excited to announce a Request for Interest (RFI) for the redevelopment of a one-acre municipally owned parking lot in the heart of Everett Square; 36 Norwood St. is a prime location for a mixed-use, high-density project a mile from the Encore Boston Harbor resort with direct Bus Rapid Transit and MBTA connections to Cambridge, Somerville, Boston, the Seaport and Logan Airport. Located at the intersection of School, Norwood and Broadway Streets, this parcel lies within a dense commercial corridor with heavy pedestrian and vehicle traffic. It’s located in an Opportunity Zone, Everett’s Business District Zone, and is included in the newly state-approved Urban Renewal Area. What’s your vision for Everett Square?

Crossley said she particularly enjoys watching her students complete experiments using the scientific method. “Seeing them go from one idea as a question to a whole experiment is pretty awesome,” she said. “They get so excited about it, it’s really incredible, I love teaching in Everett.” Crossley said that in prior years she has had students walk into her classroom who were not at all interested in science and ended up loving it 10 months later. “That’s my goal, to open their eyes to science,” she said. As a result, a number of Crossley’s former students have gone on to study STEM-related fields in college. 8 Norwood St. Everett (617) 387-9810 www.eight10barandgrille.com Kitchen Hours: Mon-Thurs: 12-10pm Fri-Sat: 12-11pm Sunday: 1pm-10pm Come in & Enjoy our Famous... $12 LUNCH Menu!

It was the first of six such graduations planned for this summer. For six weeks each summer, the Middlesex Sheriff’s Office (MSO) offers youngsters ages eight to 12 from Middlesex County communities the opportunity to participate in educational and confidence-building activities alongside members of the MSO as well as their local police and fire departments. YPSA staff incorporates multiple learning styles to teach personal safety and teamwork while building relationships between youngsters and public safety officials. “This is the 20th year we have hosted YPSA, and every year we see the positive impact it has on youngsters across the county,” said Sheriff Koutoujian. “Cadets at this camp learn lifelong skills in areas like fire safety and emergency preparedness, but just as importantly they foster bonds with their community officials in a way that keeps that educational curiosity alive far beyond one summer.” Over a thousand cadets from Everett students pictured top and bottom, are shown with Middlesex County Sheriff Peter J. Koutoujian following their graduation from the Youth Public Safety Academy recently. (Courtesy of Middlesex County Sheriff's Office) more than three dozen communities participate in YPSA each year.

DiDomenico urges action on high-quality pre-K B OSTON – On July 2, State Senator Sal DiDomenico testified before the Massachusetts Legislature’s Joint Committee on Education in support of his bill, S.265, An Act ensuring high-quality pre-kindergarten education. This legislation would expand preschool, using grants from the state, beginning with high-needs communities that are ready with a state-approved expansion plan. “Across Massachusetts, people are ready for more preschool,” said Senator DiDomenico in his testimony before the Committee. “I have heard from countless parents who want this learning opportunity for their children, but often can’t afford it or are on waiting lists. Local communities, led by community-based programs, school districts and mayors, have solid plans for preschool expansion and are waiting for new public dollars to begin implementation. That is why I filed this legislation, and I am confident this bill is an important next step towards improving and expanding high-quality early education for our kids.” Pre-K education has been proven to have significant shortand long-term impacts on children’s educational, social and health outcomes. However, about 40% of three and four year olds in Massachusetts do not attend preschool.

Congratulations to all of today’s awardees.” The state Department of Housing and Community Development (DHCD) is awarding nearly $80 million in direct subsidies from seven state bond accounts and federal HOME Investment Partnerships Program (HOME) funds, and allocating $38 million in state and federal Low Income Housing Tax Credits (LIHTC) to 28 projects. The tax credit allocations will generate more than $260 million in equity to support these projects. Massachusetts is one of just 17 states to offer a state tax-credit program to complement the federal LIHTC program to support the development and rehabilitation of affordable housing. Governor Baker joined Housing and Economic Development Secretary Mike Kennealy, DHCD Undersecretary Janelle Chan and local leaders to announce the awards in Swampscott, near the site of the future Senior Residence at the Machon, which received funding. The project will redevelop a vacant elementary school into 38 affordable rental units for seniors, with eight units reserved for extremely low-income seniors. The developer, B’Nai B’rith, will also provide long-term services at the site to support residents. DHCD is supporting the project with a federal LIHTC allocation and direct subsidy funding. St. Therese Condo I is part of a new two-phase construction project in Everett. The nonprofit sponsor is The Neighborhood Developers (TND). The two-phase project consists of the redevelopment of a site as low-income housing with services for seniors. DHCD will support the project with low-income housing tax credits and subsidy funds. The City of Everett also will support the project with funds. When completed, St. Therese Condo I will feature 44 units, all of which will be affordable to seniors earning less than 60% of Area Median Income (AMI). Eight units will be further restricted for extremely low-income seniors earning less than 30% of AMI, including formerly homeless seniors.

Richard Schuster of New York, visited Encore on July 11 and received a payment that was calculated using six to five odds whenever he was dealt a blackjack. However, according to state law, the Massachusetts Gaming Commission and the rules of blackjack, players are entitled to payouts with odds of three to two. Using a $50 bet as an example, Garick said a player would be entitled to a $75 payout using three to two odds. Yet, odds of six to five would only produce a $60 winning. “This is designed to maximize the casino’s advantage far in excess of that which is permitted under either variation of Blackjack that is approved by the Massachusetts Gaming Commission,” said Garick. He also said that Schuster was shorted on the slots as well. “At the conclusion of a gambling session, any un-wagered chips or credits are supposed to be refunded to the customer,” said Garick. However, Encore only refunded Schuster with whole dollar amounts. “Thousands of class members were subject to the same deception, and all involve common questions of law and fact,” said Garick. Therefore, the lawsuit charges the casino with counts of Breach of Contract, Promissory Estoppel, Unjust Enrichment and Conversion/Theft.

The City of Everett will receive over $75M in Chapter 70 education funding, a $6M increase over the previous fiscal year. “With this budget, we are making it clear that we are serious about securing more funding for our K-12 public schools and reforming our state’s outdated education funding formula,” said Sen. DiDomenico. “This has been – and continues to be – my top education priority, and I am proud that my district will receive the additional funds that they deserve in the Senate budget.” Other top priority items for Senator DiDomenico that were included in the FY 2020 Senate Budget and will benefit Everett residents are: • $4.8M for the state’s pediatric palliative care network – a $1M increase over FY19 – to ensure there is no wait list for these critical services so children and their families have the extra care and support that they need • $350-per-child clothing allowance to help low-income families meet their basic needs • $12M for grants to the Head Start program to maintain access to early education services for low-income families • $6.5M for Youth-At-Risk Matching grants, including support for YWCAs, YMCAs and Boys & Girls Clubs The Senate’s budget also invests in programs and policies to educate, train and prepare Massachusetts workers in order to provide them with opportunities to grow and succeed.

The amendment will prohibit the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) from denying benefits, including VA home loans, based on a veteran’s income being derived from a state’s legal marijuana industry. “The cannabis industry is a growing part of our economy and no one, let alone our veterans, should be penalized for being part of it,” said Congresswoman Clark. “The passage of this amendment ensures that our service members receive the benefits they deserve while modernizing the policies of the VA.” Among the benefits offered to U.S. veterans, the VA offers loan guarantees for low-rate mortgages with no money down. Earlier this year, a constituent of Congresswoman Clark’s reported to her office that he had been denied this benefit based on his legal employment in the cannabis industry in Massachusetts. The VA informed her office that this source of income was not “stable and reliable.” In response, Clark sent a letter to the VA in May asking for clarification on their regulations relating to veterans employed legally in the cannabis industry, as well as advocating that the VA modernize its policies to reflect the budding role of the cannabis industry throughout the country. Over 200,000 Americans are working in jobs related to medical or recreational cannabis, generating $11 billion in sales annually. Most states have now legalized cannabis use for one or both of these uses. The U.S. House passed NDAA with several critical reforms, including the repeal of the 2001 and 2002 Authorization for Use of Military Force (AUMF), the prevention of unilateral action on Iran, and investments in military pay and housing. NDAA also has two other amendments proposed by Congresswoman Clark: protecting access to health insurance for government employees during shutdowns and preventing a president or vice president from personally contracting with the federal government. NDAA next heads to Conference Committee, where the differing House and Senate versions will be reconciled before NDAA heads to the President’s desk.

The American shoemaker, valued at over $130 billion, pulled the shoes after former NFL quarterback and company spokesperson Colin Kaepernick worried on Twitter that the flag was a racist symbol. Anyone claiming moral leadership ought to consider why there was a backlash. It’s not simply due to middle America’s hypersensitivity to the trashing of national symbols. The hypocrisy is real when a major corporation represents itself as “moral” to a narrow constituency while at the same time putting off everyone else. Aggravating cultural division in a time of deep polarization is anything but moral. Some observers explain away Nike’s offensive move as consistent with its established branding strategy. The Wall Street Journal reports that the shoemaker’s core customers – adolescent males – value brands that “get involved in social issues, have a moral message and express views even if they are controversial.” On CNBC, one CEO observed, “When you start to stray into using a version of the flag that has different meaning for different people, that’s a line you don’t want to cross.” Never mind that flags, like all symbols, always mean different things to different people.

In its first development in Everett, TND will implement a vision for seniors to be able to age in community in safe, quality homes with easy access to health care and wellness services. At the former St. Therese Parish, TND will create a community asset featuring affordable rental homes for seniors, home ownership opportunities, public green space, and a new health center to serve residents and neighbors alike. The development will include a new building on Broadway with 77 affordable rental homes for seniors aged 62 and older, with a new health center on the ground floor to serve building residents and members of the broader community. The health center will be operated by East Boston Neighborhood Health Center, through its Neighborhood PACE program, which provides comprehensive care and support for seniors, including preventive care, specialist visits, prescription drug coverage, and health and wellness programs. Neighborhood PACE is the ideal solution for those who want an alternative to nursing home care for the right combination of medical, social, recreation, rehabilitation, home care, and other services. Of the 77 homes at St. Therese, more than one third will be restricted for households earning up to 30% AMI. Building amenities will include a community room, fitness room, on-site management office, laundry and parking. TND also plans to redevelop a pocket park on the site, to enhance its accessibility and functionality for residents of St. Therese and the public. The park project will also incorporate architectural elements from the church building and an interpretive exhibit to honor the rich history of St. Therese Parish in Everett. The redevelopment will also include six new construction three-bedroom townhouse condominiums, which will be for sale at below-market prices – three homes restricted for households earning up to 80% AMI, and three for households earning up to 120% AMI. These homes will help fill a gap in the housing market in Everett, where there is a very limited supply of three-bedroom homes for sale, and where housing prices continue to rise.

The casino’s 242 table games brought in another $7.67 million in revenue for Encore between its June 23 grand opening and the end of June. Last week Encore Boston Harbor officials touted the Everett facility’s smooth opening and said everything is operating well at the $2.6 billion resort gambling palace. Encore Boston Harbor President Robert DeSalvio told WGBH in an interview this past week that it’s “way too early to tell” whether Encore Boston Harbor will meet its expectation of $800 million in annual revenue. The first week-plus of action at the Greater Boston resort casino generated about $4.2 million in tax revenue for the state, but coincided with the second-worst month on record for the state’s first full-scale casino, MGM Springfield. While Encore Boston Harbor counted $16.79 million in revenue in eight days, MGM Springfield took in just more than $19.95 million in revenue over the full month of June.

In June MGM’s slots machines paid out better than Encore’s, a 91.59 percent return vs. a 90.25 percent return. With $5.26 million in revenue from table games, June represented MGM’s worst revenue month since January ($19.7 million). June was the second full month since MGM’s opening that MGM did not have at least $21 million from gaming. Massachusetts will receive about $4.99 million in taxes from MGM’s June revenues. Combined, the two full-scale casinos in Massachusetts, Encore and MGM, generated about $9.19 million in tax revenue for the state. (The fullscale casinos have a tax rate Slot GGR $9,118,170.27 $9,118,170.27 of 25 percent of gross gaming revenue.) Plainridge Park Casino’s slots parlor reported $13.5 million in June revenue and a slots payout of 92.24 percent, the best rate in the state. The state will receive more than $5.42 million of Plainridge’s June revenue as taxes intended for local aid – also $1.22 million for the Race Horse Development Fund.

This syndrome is a group of problems a baby experiences when withdrawing from exposure to narcotics. Sen. Vinny deMacedo (R-Plymouth), the sponsor of the amendment, said that newborns that are born with NAS, experience the same withdrawal symptoms that adults with the same dependency would experience [including] GI upset, muscle rigidity and sensory hypersensitivity, and can suffer from long term consequences such as behavioral problems, vision impairments and motor skill delays. “This amendment and the funding it included will be instrumental in targeting communities and assisting families that are in need of support and whose children are in need of treatment,” explained deMacedo. “Not only will this program offer intervention and support, it will be a crucial step in collecting quantitative data on the long term needs of these children experiencing NAS and will allow future children to receive better, more targeted treatment and prevention in the future.” (A “Yes” vote is for the amendment.) Sen. Sal DiDomenico Yes $5 MILLION FOR SUBSTANCE ABUSE (S 3) Senate 39-0, approved an amendment to implement $5 million in programs recommended by the Harm Reduction Commission created by the Legislature in 2018. Provisions include $1.5 million to increase the availability of sterile and safe injection equipment and syringe disposal services; $150,000 for a pilot program to provide access to fentanyl testing strips or other drug checking equipment; and $300,000 to increase the availability of nasal naloxone (brand name Narcan) rescue kits prior to discharge from a facility after treatment for an opioid overdose. Naloxone rescue kits include naloxone and other items used for the emergency treatment of a known or suspected opioid overdose. “For close to two decades, the opioid epidemic has consumed communities across the commonwealth,” said Sen. Julian Cyr (D-Truro), the sponsor of the amendment. “We need to focus on what we can do to save lives and harm reduction is an evidence-based approach used to keep people using opioids alive and safe until they progress into clinical treatment … Harm reduction itself should not be seen as a way to end opioid use, but rather as a valuable survival plan, COUNCILS ON AGING (S 3) Senate 39-0, approved an amendment increasing funding for Councils on Aging by $484,875 (from $16,740,125 to $17,225,000.) Sen. Becca Rausch (D-Needham), the amendment’s sponsor said the money will fund innovation grants to municipal Councils on Aging and will benefit seniors statewide. “Our collective moral compass is set, at least in part, by whether and how we respect our elders,” said Rausch. “Not only do our elders want to age in their chosen communities, but also … this approach to aging builds community, reduces costs, enriches lives and improves health outcomes by notably reducing isolation.” (A “Yes” vote is for the amendment.) Sen. Sal DiDomenico Yes HOW LONG WAS LAST WEEK'S SESSION? Beacon Hill Roll Call tracks the length of time that the House and Senate were in session each week. Many legislators say that legislative sessions are only one aspect of the Legislature's job and that a lot of important work is done outside of the House and Senate chambers. They note that their jobs also involve committee work, research, constituent work and other matters that are important to their districts. Critics say that the Legislature does not meet regularly or long enough to debate and vote in public view on the thousands of pieces of legislation that have been filed. They note that the infrequency and brief length of sessions are misguided and lead to irresponsible late-night sessions and a mad rush to act on dozens of bills in the days immediately preceding the end of an annual session. During the week of July 8-12, the House met for a total of 10 hours and 35 minutes while the Senate met for a total of one hours and 27 minutes. Mon.

I’m 65, and live primarily on my Social Security, and am having a hard time paying my Medicare out-of-pocket costs. Need Some Help Dear Need, There are several financial assistance programs that can help lower-income Medicare beneficiaries who are having a difficult time paying their out-of-pocket health care costs. Here’s what’s available, along with the eligibility requirements and how to apply. Medicare Savings Programs Let’s start with a program that helps pay premiums and outof-pocket costs for Medicare Parts A and B. It’s called the Medicare Savings Program (MSP), and it has several different benefit levels for people based on their income and asset level. At its most generous the program will pay your Part A and B premiums and pretty much all your Medicare deductibles, coinsurance and copayments. At its least generous the program will pay just your Part B premium. To qualify for a MSP, the minimum standard set by Medicare, is an income under 135 percent of the federal poverty level, which at the moment works out to around $1,426 a month for individuals (or $1,923 for married couples). Everything counts towards income, including payouts from 401(k) plans, pensions, Social Security, and help from family members. Medicare also allows states to impose an asset test, which can be as little as $7,730 per individual ($11,600 for married couples), not counting your house or car but counting retirement savings and bank accounts. But some states have made their MSP programs a lot more generous, with much higher income limits and in some cases no asset tests at all. And the program may be called something else in your state. To find out if you qualify or to apply, contact your state Medicaid program. Visit Medicare.gov/contacts or call all 800-633-4227 for contact information. Medication Extra Help For help with Medicare (Part D) prescription drug plan costs, there is another completely separate program called Extra Help. To get it, you’ll need to apply through your local Social Security office. Depending on how low your income is, this program will pay part or all of your Part D prescription drug plan’s monthly premiums, annual deductibles and prescription co-payments. In 2019, individuals with a yearly income below $18,735 ($25,365 for a married couple), and assets under $14,390 ($28,720 for a married couple) can qualify for Extra Help. If you’re eligible to be in a Medicare Savings Program, you will automatically qualify for Extra Help. But because the requirements are slightly different, even if you don’t qualify for a Medicare Savings Program for Part B you might be able to get Extra Help for Part D. For more information or to apply, visit SSA.gov/ extrahelp or call Social Security at 800-772-1213. Other Assistance Programs Depending on your income level, needs and location there are many other financial assistance programs that can help like Medicaid, SSI (Supplemental Security Income), PACE (Program of All-inclusive Care for the Elderly), SNAP (Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program), (LIHEAP) Low Income Home Energy Assistance Program and many others. To help you find out what types of assistance programs you may be eligible for, and learn how to apply for them, go to BenefitsCheckUp.org. This is a free, confidential Web tool designed for people age 55 and older that contains more than 2,500 programs. It’s also possible to get help in person at one of the 87 Benefits Enrollment Centers scattered across the U.S. Call 888-2686706 or visit NCOA.org/centerforbenefits/becs to locate a center in your area. Some centers also offer assistance over the phone. Send your senior questions to: Savvy Senior, P.O. Box 5443, Norman, OK 73070, or visit SavvySenior.org.

But the spokesman’s role is different this time. Rather than positively expressing what he believes, he’s effectively dictating what Nike – and anyone downstream from their influence – must not express. He’s gone from dissident martyr to censoring cleric, an inconsistency that makes for a culture war loss. Likening Kaepernick to a puritanical religious authority is no stretch. The Washington Post covered the flag’s potential racism as a prospective “contamination.” Rightly suggesting that people of good will should not readily surrender symbols to racists, Alyssa Rosenberg discussed the flag’s possible racist associations in terms of taint, poison, and desecration. This matches how social and legal theorists think about racism. Even if Kaepernick and Nike’s executives are sincere, they are operating within a group morality that, like all others, casts judgments, pronounces taboos, and declares what’s sacred and what’s profane. To be moral in this sense is to police a moral community according to the judgment of its authorities, which leaves those who don’t accept its judgments feeling coerced or excluded. It’s a discomfiting tension for progressives to live with, given that these are the evils they like to tilt against. Just because a corporadays after the return date.

DeCRISTOFARO REGISTER OF PROBATE July 19, 2019 tion’s fan base, its peers, and even presidential candidates eat up and defend its branding doesn’t make it moral. At best, this is only winning the approval of one’s own tribe. Because corporate brands build loyalty through individuals’ voluntary acts of association, their authority is parochial at best. There’s nothing wrong with collecting together a band of people who “believe in something.” But if Senator Ben Sasse is right, what we think of as tribes are often anti-tribes. The danger is that believing in something slips into being against something and being against some others closely identified with that thing. There’s a second way Nike’s shoe cancellation contradicts its branding: it didn’t “cost everything.” Rather, the company gained billions of dollars in market value by its iconoclasm. According to The Journal, company founder Phil Knight told a business school audience earlier this year, “It doesn’t matter how many people hate your brand as long as enough people love it.” He may as well have endorsed profit at any cost, frayed national political climate be damned. This devil-may-care attitude seems out of step with the corporate social responsibility ethos that progressives embrace. That imperative has firms look beyond maximizing shareholder value to the interests of stakeholders like factory workers and the environment. If ecosystems and socioeconomic groups matter, then why not the nation’s civic climate? It destabilizes society when cultural titans needlessly alienate a large swath of fellow citizens. Nike’s branding has got it backwards. It’s cheap to fire up one’s tribal base by being against something. The true moral leadership that our deeply divided society needs risks disappointing that base for the sake of the common good. It’s past time that America’s commentators, celebrities, and corporate leaders take that risk. It won’t cost everything. —Lewis Waha holds an M.A. in Christian Apologetics from Biola University and is a freelance writer focusing on faith in the public square.

What a spacecraft was the Lunar Module! Has any more absurd or outrageous flying machine ever been devised? An unsung mechanical hero of the Apollo program, it was splendidly designed and constructed by the Grumman Corporation. It didn’t need to be streamlined for the vacuum of space, but it needed the smallest mass possible for its maneuvers. Parts of the walls were the thickness of soda cans. Because glass is heavy, the engineers changed the window design until there were just tiny triangular windows. The original LM design was rounded, but slicing off parts of it yielded those peculiar sharp edges—and lower mass. They didn’t even provide seats for Aldrin and Armstrong. America should be proud of what it accomplished with the Moon missions, even if we never again spend that kind of money on human space flight. In his essay, “Religion and Rocketry,” C. S. Lewis said that if humans conquer space we will do it as oppressors and plunderers. We are a fallen race—original sin is empirically proven by humanity’s spotty track record. We should take his cautions seriously. Indeed, we landed on the Moon in part because we wanted to win the Cold War against the Soviets, each nation wanting to prove the technological superiority of its form of government. The rockets that carried the astronauts were adapted from technology that would have enabled us to throw megaton-class hydrogen bombs at each other. The space race was a non-violent way to wage that war. America’s race to the Moon was a public affair; everyone saw the failures and the successes along the way. We showed that a free and open society could perform great feats. But when we got there, the astronauts did not talk about manifest destiny, victory on the battlefield, or making a lot of money by destroying the environment. Instead, they left a plaque on the lunar surface that read, “Here men from the planet Earth first set foot upon the Moon, July 1969 A.D. We came in peace for all mankind.” —Dr. Glenn A.

Since the two Viking missions in the 1970s, we have extensively charted the surface of Mars and the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter spacecraft—equipped with the HiRISE Camera—is now resolving objects a meter in size. We could spot a Martian from space, barely, if we knew where to look. Someday, Lord willing, humanity will go to Mars. The HiRISE images will guarantee that we know what the landing site looks like, and that there will be no unpleasant surprises, like huge boulders or deep ravines that would make a Martian lander topple over. Starting in 1961, the United States similarly mapped the Moon in prepaBUYER1 Leitzke, Debora Bhatti, Sohail Y Barua, Ratul K Shrestha, Niroj ration for the Apollo missions. Before we sent astronauts, a series of Ranger and Surveyor landers characterized the lunar regolith (soil) as firm enough to land and walk on. But craters of every size pockmarked the surface. So we launched five Lunar Orbiter missions, and their powerful cameras carefully mapped the entire Moon to a resolution of a few meters. NASA engineers and scientists used these images to select landing sites for the Apollo missions. A prime landing zone would be flat and would have no large craters or boulders that could overturn the lunar module (LM) lander upon touchdown. For this reason the smooth Sea of Tranquility was selected as the target for Apollo 11. But what if you miss the landing zone?

Descending too fast in humanity’s first approach to the Moon’s surface, they overshot their target by about four miles. That’s not bad, given no one had ever done it before this real-time test and they had been traveling for a quarter of a million miles. Four miles out of a quarter million was pretty good for these pilots. But as Aldrin and Armstrong approached the lunar surface, Neil Armstrong realized that the lander was descending to an area littered with large boulders. To land there might be catastrophic. Using manual control, he delayed the landing by firing the engine to keep the LM aloft at about 400 feet to wing it to a landing site with few boulders or craters—like the large one ahead of SELLER2 them. Would they clear it? More importantly, would they have the fuel to clear it? A spacecraft must have the smallest mass possible, so the Eagle had very little extra fuel to burn on a search for a better landing site. As Armstrong looked, Flight Director Gene Krantz announced that the LM had 60 seconds of fuel remaining. Was the fuel gauge accurate? Still they looked. As they cleared what would later be named West Crater, Armstrong saw that the other side of it was relatively featureless, so he decided to land there. 45 seconds. Still not landed, but descending, very close. Armstrong’s heart rate was 158, his body belying his cool demeanor. With about 20 seconds of fuel left, Buzz Aldrin announced, “Contact Augusto, Antonio J Rouse, Ashley Tram, Hung T 15 B Street RT Babak-Rahimzadeh, Bobby Lucky 87 LLC CK RT 5 Bono, Joseph T Ward, Larry W Keenan FT Basnet, Bijaya K Mcewen, Kevin J Gallant, John S Keenan, Christopher Mcewen, Paula Gallant, Robert F Littman-Quinn, Jack ADDRESS 38 Carter St #309 25 Orange Ct Perpetuo, Edson F 33 Rock Valley Ave 15 B St 15 Hancock Ter 11 Baker Rd 10 Edith Ave #3 173 Bell Rock St #173 36 Lewis St #2 7 Maplewood Ave 22 Fairlawn St 142 Grover St Mckinnon, Michael Le, Hy T CITY Everett Everett Everett Everett Everett Everett Everett Everett Everett Everett Everett Everett Light,” as the LM touched the lunar surface and the engine shut down. Consummate professionals, Aldrin and Armstrong did not whoop and holler. After a 19-second, matter-offact exchange between Mission Control and the Lander, Armstrong announced, “Houston, Tranquility Base here. The Eagle has landed.” CAPCOM Charlie Duke responded from Mission Control: “Roger, Tranquility. We copy you on the ground. You got a bunch of guys about to turn blue. We’re breathing again. Thanks a lot.” Gene Krantz called out to all stations in Mission Control to give the Stay/No Stay response and all stations declaimed “Stay.” We had truly landed on the Moon.
