It was 61 years ago today, December 1, 1964, during MLB’s winter meetings at the Shamrock Hilton Hotel, that Houston Colt .45s president Judge Roy Hofheinz announced: “From henceforth and forevermore the name of the Houston baseball team will be known as the Astros.” The new name, Astros, short for Astronauts, celebrated the future and paid direct tribute to NASA’s manned space program headquartered in Houston. | Houston City Beat
