Good news. The thermometer stayed above freezing last night. 3 degrees C minimum, up here on the hill. Down on the river they got -1.

Shackleton's advert could also fit Navy life, or service life in general. Most Astronauts are servicemen and women any way.
Our Navy advert goes,"You'll be cold, you'll be homesick, you'll be frightened, but, the pride of the fleet, is you".
The attitude goes with the training.
Was it Chuck Yeager said, "I've never been scared in my life, but, that airplane sure impressed the hell out of me". That's, "the right stuff".
