"STAY CURIOUS" TODAY AT 4 PM EDT WITH THE USCIAK BROTHERS, KSC PHOTOGRAPHERS WHO WERE AT THE LAUNCH OF SKYLAB 48 YEARS AGO TODAY--And the photo shows them...oh, when they were young!
Mark and Tom Usciak have five decades of experience as a team covering with their cameras three Apollo, four Skylab and 64 Space Space Shuttle launches, as well as a dozen unmanned rockets that blasted off Kennedy Space Center or Cape Canaveral.
In 1971, the Lancaster, Pennsylvania brothers Mark and Tom, with two other people, formed a photography group that covered the Shuttle program as well as unmanned launches. Their work has appeared in nearly every major aerospace magazine as well as websites and the local television station WGAL in Lancaster.
They have won awards for their photos from the Aviation and Space Writers Association as well as Mark winning multiple times in the Aviation Week photography contests.
“Stay Curious” host Mark Marquette and co-producer/cameraman Marty Winkel present ASM’s program with live interviews of space workers, current events and space history weekdays at 4 pm on the museum’s page. It is our way of “bridging the space between us.” You don’t have to belong to Facebook to watch, just put American Space Museum in the FB search.
