Astronauts on their bikes a thing.
Hey guys sorry for not updating for a while I'm quite busy recently
Here's a quick sketch of Neil ♡
A 1963 cartoon poking fun at astronaut Ed White’s enormous appetite; and a portrait of the artist, fellow astronaut John Young, in the process of drawing it.

“Jim, don’t wave at him! He knows what we did to the honeymoon suite!”
Jim Lovell: “Just to be confined in there like a sardine in a can, that was a real trial. And, of course, you’re sitting right next to your companion, and for two weeks, being with Frank Borman… Two weeks being with Frank Borman any place was a real challenge. *laughs*”
Lovell: “Frank had a book called ‘Roughing it’ which we tried to read. We also sang to each other.”
Frank Borman: “Nat King Cole, at that time, had a very popular song: ‘Put your sweet lips a little closer to the phone’.”
Lovell: “*singing* Put your sweet lips a little closer to the phone, let’s pretend that you and I are all alone.”
Borman: “That got on our minds and we sang that damn song for two weeks. *laughs*”
Lovell, laughing: “We still sing it, occasionally.”
