  • I read a fair amount about people, and I have noticed that Edward Higgins White, II, was reported to have been born (Nov 14, 1930) in San Antonio TX, yet he does not appear with another astronaut, David Scott, and other "famous" people (mostly sports figures) in your "Birthplace" section. Scott appears to be an after-thought in this section. White was the first American to take a spacewalk and died tragically in the Appolo I disaster while preparing for a launch along with Roger Chaffee and Virgil "Gus" Grissom.
