Charles J. Camarda

Charles J. Camarda was someone I had met back in December 2009 and who signed my Space Shuttle: 20 Years book. However, it wasn't until afterward that I realized I wanted signed photos from at least the astronauts I had met.

 

I had written him at Johnson Space Center in December 2011 without success. So I was happy when Camarda was scheduled to appear at the opening of the Intrepid Sea-Air-Space Museum's space shuttle pavilion, and also scheduled to take part in autograph signings, as part of a group of New York-area astronauts. (Camarda was born in Queens.)

 

In addition to STS-114, Camarda was a backup on ISS Exp. 8, which this is a photo of his training. An attendee commented on how neat the photo was. He added his mission number unasked. New York, NY, 19 July 2012.
