Let's make this birthday one to remember.

93 years old (Born on December 30, 1931)

Happy Birthday, Charlie! You always aimed for the stars—literally—and even though gravity had other plans, your legacy still soars higher than most rockets. We remember you today not just as an astronaut who trained fearlessly but also as someone whose courage and humor inspired everyone around him.

Though NASA's third group of astronauts was legendary, we all know secretly that you were the coolest one in orbit training. Your dedication continues to inspire generations dreaming about space exploration. Wherever you're celebrating now, we're sure it's out-of-this-world spectacular!

Cheers to a timeless hero—we miss you down here on Earth!
