Forget that. ISS module.
Michael Foale fits but can't think of another Foale. Unless....
OK
Is it Michael Foale?

Re: TWENTY QUESTIONS Game 158
I couldn't find a spaceman that fit all the criteria earlier today, but I think you have it. Endeavor and Challenger are references to Space Shuttles and he was on a few flights (looks like mostly Discovery and Atlantis.)

Not Donald Pettit.
19. Never went to the moon.
Its unusual to get to 19 questions, is it not?

Re: TWENTY QUESTIONS Game 158
CORRECT! And just in the nick of time.
You all seem to have got the hints for Endeavour, Challenger and Destiny. Did the scrambles hint for “It’s not unusual” out you over the edge?
Tom Jones is the only astronaut I’ve ever met, at Cape Canaveral. Four time Shuttle rider and member of Astronaut Hall of Fame.
Well done, damo6666!

Re: TWENTY QUESTIONS Game 158
I almost guessed Thomas David Jones. I thought it couldn't be him because he was in the Air Force, but I guess he wasn't famous for that so I can't complain.
Re: TWENTY QUESTIONS Game 158
That was my logic. I take the questions at face value and leave it to the players to word them in a way to get maximum information.
I think it helped raise his obscurity because his Wikipedia page doesn’t use the name Tom Jones.
