Frank Borman was an amazing astronaut most famous for being commander of the Apollo 8 mission in 1968. Borman was born in Gary, Indiana on March 14 1928. Although, he soon moved to Tucson, Arizona, where he now calls his hometown. Like me, he grew up being an only child. His passion for flying started when he was 15 years old. Before he was selected for NASA he did things such as being a flying instructor, experimental test pilot, and an assistant professor at West Point. In 1957, Frank got his Master of Science degree at Aeronautical Engineering from the California Institute of Technology. Before the Apollo 8 mission he was also a part of the Gemini 7 mission in 1965. Also, one year before Apollo 8, he was a part of the Apollo 204 Fire Investigation
