I went to Kennedy Space Center today for my 26th Wedding Anniverary and saw the Shuttle Atlantis. During our walks through the Space Shuttle Atlantis musuem I saw info about Alan Shepard being the first American to travel into space. By the way they did an amazing job showing the Shuttle Atlantis.

I realize could this be were Bioware came up with Shepard in Mass Effect ?

Alan Bartlett Shepard, Jr. (November 18, 1923 – July 21, 1998) was an American naval aviator, test pilot, flag officer, NASA astronaut, and businessman, who in 1961 became the second person, and the first American, to travel into space. This Mercury flight was designed to enter space, but not to achieve orbit. Ten years later, at age 47 the oldest astronaut in the program, Shepard commanded the Apollo 14 mission, piloting the lander to the most accurate landing of the Apollo missions. He became the fifth person to walk on the Moon, and the only astronaut of the Mercury Seven to walk on the Moon. During the mission he hit two golf balls on the lunar surface.

Anyone noticed that they also suddenly added the classic 50s "combed & gel" hairstyle for mShep in the third game?

I know it was simply in style back then, but that just makes for all the pioneer astronauts looking like that. I've always wondered if that was because of that, too.

Maybe so but I like to think it was so we could have twelve disciples in Mass Effect 2 and somebody to die for all of our sins in Mass Effect 3.
