Barbree was the only journalist to have covered every non-commercial human space mission in the United States, beginning with the first American in space, Alan Shepard aboard Freedom 7 in 1961, continuing through to the last mission of the Space Shuttle, Atlantis's STS-135 mission in July 2011. Barbree was present for all 135 Space Shuttle launches, and every manned launch for the Mercury, Gemini, and Apollo eras. In total, Barbree was witness to 166 human space launches.
