Veteran astronauts Brian Duffy and Scott Parazynski joined the U.S. Astronaut Hall of Fame Saturday (May 14) during a public ceremony at the Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex in Florida. An Air Force pilot, Duffy commanded two of his four flights on the space shuttle, including the program’s 100th mission. A medical doctor and mountain climber, Parazynski helped to install the Canadarm2 and repair a torn solar array outside the International Space Station. The two comprise the 15th class of space shuttle astronauts to be added to the Hall.
