Sad news, but heartening that even with long exposure to space conditions (zero gravity, radiation, perhaps others I haven’t thought of), space explorers reach reasonable old age. John Glenn also reached the age of 95.

Rest in Peace, Jim.
Old time is still a' flying. Remnants of a gone era are themselves passing.
