Planetarium to Honor Life of Fallen Arlington Son – Captain David M. Brown

“The Arlington School Board unanimously approved a recommendation to name the Planetarium in honor of Captain David M. Brown. Captain Brown, a Yorktown High School graduate, died while serving as a mission specialist on the NASA Space Shuttle Columbia mission on February 1, 2003. In November 2007, Arlington Public Schools received a letter from Arlington resident George Wysor, a childhood friend and classmate of Brown’s and an APS alumnus, requesting that the APS planetarium be renamed in memory of Captain Brown.”
