NASA’s first Apollo command module pilot to launch to space, Donn Eisele died 29 years ago Friday (Dec. 2) at the age of 57. Three decades later, museum director and author Francis French has rediscovered Eisele’s draft memoir, which has now been published for all to read. “Apollo Pilot,” edited by French, offers a “fresh and contemporary” look at Eisele’s mission on board Apollo 7.
