60 years ago... Mercury 7 1963, October 21 the seven " Mercury 7 " astronauts pose for an end-of-program group photo with US Navy LtCmdr Scott Carpenter on the right. Note that, exactly 515 days after his "Aurora 7" mission, Carpenter wore an all black dial Breitling Navitimer replacement for his custom-made "Cosmonaute" which got damaged during splash-down & recovery operations in May 1962. MoonwatchUniverse has written a day-to-day account article showing that a launch delay due to a parachute hardware fault enabled Carpenter to receive the 1962 "Cosmonaute" in time to be worn as the first Swiss-made wrist watch in space! At this time, October 1963 the NASA astronaut office brainstormed about an official astronauts' chronograph and by October 1964 NASA had just received chronograph wrist watches from Hamilton, Longines-Wittnauer, Omega and Rolex for testing in order to determine which brand would become flight-qualified for their manned space program! Three decades after Carpenter’s Aurora 7 mission, Breitling chronographs returned to space as the “Chronomat”, “Cosmonaute” and “Chronospace” versions were worn by French cosmonauts (CNES spationautes) Michel Tognini (1992), Claudie André-Deshays (1996) and Léopold Eyharts (1998).

Grosse nostalgie… 🥺❤️❤️‍🩹

Il y a tout juste 1 an aujourd’hui, je rencontrais Johnny Depp pour la toute première fois de ma vie, ainsi que les membres incroyables des The The Hollywood Vampires au Summerside Festival à Grenchen, en Suisse : Tommy Henriksen, Alice Cooper , Joe Perry.

Johnny Depp me manque terriblement aujourd’hui, surtout en ce moment !! Un gros câlin de sa part me ferait tellement de bien. 🥺 Et ces bijoux que j’attends toujours de pouvoir lui donner… 😑

Mais c’était aussi une journée de fou avec Michel Kohler et Corinne Kohler !!! 🤗 D’excellents souvenirs de cette journée avec vous deux !!! Et bien sûr avec l’équipe des French DeppHeads - Communauté francophone des fans de Johnny Depp rencontrée là-bas !!! 🤗 Désolée, je ne retrouve plus notre selfie dans mes galeries, je ne sais plus où je l’ai classée !! 😅

25 years ago… NASA Mir resident astronauts In 1998, NASA completed the Space Shuttle – Mir space station program as 7 American astronauts stayed in space during 1186 days compromising 9 successful shuttle-Mir dockings. This NASA group photo shows all 7 resident astronauts, Norman Thagard, Shannon Lucid, John Blaha, Jerry Linenger, Michael Foale, David Wolf and Andrew Thomas. Note at right, astronaut David Wolf wore a wonderful Gold Fortis Cosmonauts’ chronograph on black leather bracelet. 2024 will mark the 30th anniversary of Fortis wrist watches being used in space & during spacewalks, and the 15th anniversary since female NASA astronauts started using Fortis chronographs onboard the International Space Station.
