STP102 - Getting To Know The Real Deke Slayton - With Kent Slayton and Alyssa Young

Deke Slayton is a legend in the space flight world, but how much do we know about him? Well this week we're joined by his son Kent, and Alyssa Young, the executive director of the Deke Slayton Memorial Museum, to find out more. We thought this would be a discussion about the legacy of Deke, but it ended up being so much more.Deke Slayton Museum: https://dekeslaytonmuseum.org/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100043234674677Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/dekeslaytonmuseum/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/slaytonmuseum LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/deke-slayton-memorial-space-&-bicycle-museum/Full show notes: https://spaceandthingspodcast.com/podcast/stp102-getting-to-know-the-real-deke-slayton-with-kent-slayton-and-alyssa-youngShow notes include links to all articles mentioned and full details of our guest, plus videos of any launches.Image Credits: NASASpace and Things:Twitter: https://www.twitter.com/spaceandthings1Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/spaceandthingspodcastFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/spaceandthingspodcast/Merch and Info: https://www.spaceandthingspodcast.comPatreon: https://www.patreon.com/SpaceandthingsBusiness Enquiries: [email protected] and Things is brought to you And Things Productions https://www.andthingsproductions.comSupport this show http://supporter.acast.com/spaceandthings.
