The old codgers were enjoying an online "chinwag" a few weeks ago when the conversation took an interesting turn. We started recounting the many amazing senior citizens who have accomplished incredible things well into their 70s, 80s, and 90s. Many are well-known, some are people we know, and others are just ordinary folks like us. From musical accomplishments to innovative intellectual efforts to achieving records in physical performance, old folks in their golden years provide proof that age does not have to be a barrier. We begin by recalling John Glenn, one of the many amazing senior citizens who returned to space at the age of 77.
