"Rick's knowledge is only surpassed by his sometimes maddening demands for accuracy."

Russell Still co-author with Guenter Wendt of "The Unbroken Chain"

​

For the 10 year old classmates of Rick Boos, his story began at 9:30 a.m., Friday May 5, 1961 when class was interrupted by an announcement over the PA system at Orville Wright School in East Dayton, Ohio. For the

next 20  minutes we listened intently to the launch, flight and splashdown of Freedom 7, America’s first manned suborbital flight with Alan Shephard onboard. From that moment on, Rick Boos would forever be associated

with spaceflight, eventually becoming a space researcher, historian, freelance writer, consultant and

space memorabilia collector.

 

The Rick Boos Research Center is dedicated to documenting Rick's life and his endeavor to seek truth

and transparency in America's Space Program. While Mr. Boos was thoroughly versed in everything

space, he was laser focused on the loss of the Liberty Bell 7 in 1961 and the tragic fire on

AS 204 {Apollo 1} on January 27, 1967.
