Just your typical story about a kid who grew up in New Jersey and studied hard, got good grades and somehow became a NASA Astronaut.

The last time I attended #IsraeliSpaceWeek was in 2020. It felt great yesterday to return to judge the student projects and offer the kids some hope for a bright future during this difficult time. I missed all my friends at the over these past 3 years!

The translator clearly had fun during his lecture, they added "Wow" to the image of Israel from space and 😂 during one of the jokes

My honest answer would be as predictable as the Earth's rotation. Check out this clip of our family band with guest appearances from Cameron McCool on tambourine and Tabitha Ele Hwyl on Cello. Apologies to and for desecrating such a fine song!

Ok Garrett, what was your favorite Kinks song. The only condition is your answer can’t be…Predictable! :-)

It was my pleasure being Ken’s guest on his podcast. We talk about some real serious and important things but manage to have a few laughs too. Check it out!

It was great having astronaut @astro_g_dogg on the show. Hear us discuss how Elon Musk, the Ukraine-Russia War, and global warming are impacting space exploration: hubs.li/Q01tcdp00

It was a really fun night and was great to meet all of you! But not the greatest chicken and bean burrito tbh.

Been to some good dinner parties in my day, but this was the first one to include a cocktail-mixing astronaut , a dancing conceptual artist, a million copy best-selling author, a network president, an anti-recidivist expert, a serial entrepreneur (& dog). Thanks @JonLevyTLB !

Actually his daughter, Oksana (who is translating in this video), did tell me about that painting. I gave her a prop from Season One of - a newspaper with a huge headline about her father becoming the first man on the moon. I think he would have liked it.

#OTD in 2015 Buzz and I were in Switzerland when Russian Cosmonaut Alexei Leonov shared a story with us about the artwork he made in 1965 of Americans & Russians together on the Moon a la @forallmankind_. Bet you didn’t know about this @astro_g_dogg while advising on the show. 🤩

This was too much fun! It felt great to take on the road in front of a live audience. And everyone we met here in #SouthDakota was super nice and friendly. Thank you to the Vucurevich Foundation and for making it possible.

None of those people above our heads were on the ballet today, but I hope everyone had the chance to get out and vote! I voted last week and enjoyed today at @MountRushmoreNM before speaking tonight for the John T. Vucurevich Foundation with @astro_g_dogg. @WSB_Speakers
