Last night, we awarded NASA flight director Gene Kranz the 2021 Michael Collins Trophy for Lifetime Achievement. Kranz's legendary career began in the U.S. Air Force and then took him to NASA mission control, from Project Mercury through the Shuttle Program. #CollinsTrophy | National Air and Space Museum, Smithsonian Institution
