Veteran astronaut Sam Durrance, one of the earliest professional astronomers to fly in space, died yesterday (5 May), aged 79. Durrance, who flew as a Payload Specialist on two shuttle missions in December 1990 and March 1995—logging more than 25 cumulative days in space, covering 10.6 million miles (17.1 million kilometers) and completing 346 orbits of Earth—had endured a long struggle with dementia and Parkinson’s Disease, according to a family statement, and spent his final days in hospice care at a facility in Viera, Fla.
