   I've noticed that many former astronauts are exceedingly long-lived. John Glenn was 95yo when he died. Michael Collins was 90yo when he died. Buzz Aldrin is very much still with us at 95yo, as is Jim Lovell (pictured) at 97yo.

   I wonder if anyone has researched the reasons for their longevity.
