Lindsey Wilson College President William T. Luckey Jr.,
left, met Saturday, September 29, 2012, with one of Romania's famous cosmonauts, Dumitru-Dorin Prunariu. Prunariu was the youngest person to fly in outer space when the 28-year-old spent almost eight full days in space with Russian cosmonaut Leonid Popov in May 1981 on board Soyuz 40 and the Salyut 6 space laboratory. The two completed scientific experiments in the fields of astrophysics, space radiation, space technology, space medicine and biology. Prunariu was the 103rd human to fly into outer space. Luckey met with Prunariu, who is now retired, while on a trip to the Romanian capital of Bucharest.
