Today, Mercury 13 member Wally Funk at 82, will become the oldest person to go to space.

The previous record holder was John Glenn, who testified against the Mercury 13, arguing that women were not fit for spaceflight.

But if you’ve got any old smartphones or laptops sitting in a draw gathering dust, please consider donating them to a child who needs one to do their schooling from home https://t.co/c599TMvFTY
