Space Brain


Today is the day when Colonel Chris Hadfield returns to Earth. The commander has changed how people view the International Space Station, engaged children, teens and adults all over the world and has successfully used social media to make space exploration and science accessible and entertaining. I'm going to miss seeing his pictures on Tumblr, miss reading his thoughts about the world and seeing it from a different perspective. It's been a wild ride and it will be cool to see how the ISS, NASA and the Canada Space Agency use this new interest to promote themselves and space exploration.

Tonight I'm listening live as the Soyuz capsule is landing and it's bittersweet. Here is the video of Colonel Hadfield singing Space Oddity...from space. Isn't living in the future amazing?
