My great grandfather died when he was 107. When I look back at what he lived through, from the end of the Civil War, through the invention of the computer and beyond, I am stunned! He died in the early 90's. <br /><br />I was watching NASA TV a lil while ago and they were showing video of the astronauts in the station floating around like they're in a big swimming pool. What I'm wondering is, since I'm only 26, what do you guys think the chances are of me being able to experience space travel, or at least able to see what it is like to personally "float in space" like an astronaut before I move on to the next adventure?<br /><br />Hopefully, I have a minimum of 50 years ahead of me. Thats a LOT of time in todays world of rapidly advancing technology.<br /><br />Sean
