If you haven’t heard already a frog took probably the most famous jump of its life last Friday night.
A photograph of the unfortunate amphibian was seen rising up with the launch of the moon mission that lifted off from the NASA Wallops flight Facility in Virginia.
The shot was taken by flight facility staff photographer Chris Perry which shows the outline of a the frog against the blast from the rocket .
And the photo went viral.
The Salisbury Daily Times reports that a Google search for NASA frog yesterday…found 12.6 million hits.
And television networks that include NBC, CBS and CNN have been showing the famous frog along with newspapers and other outlets around the world.
Wallops Flight Facility spokesman Keith Kohler noted that Wallops is an island with frogs and he added, "There just happened to be one there."
