Even though I never met Gene Shoemaker, through videos and books I have gotten a real feel for his life's work, and I'm really sad that he is gone, because had he been able to live to a ripe old age, he would have really gotten to see his work come to even greater fruition than it already has. However, he has left a tremendous legacy and he was truly one of the giants of the dawn of the space age. I hope they name a great crater on Mars after him. David Glaser Berkely, CA
