Hadfield posts some pretty cool stuff on Twitter
Spaceflight finale: To some this may look like a sunset. But it's a new dawn
Spaceships glowing blue in the dawn as we leave Florida headed across the Atlantic
Chris and Tom, helmet lights doing their best to light the universe on the dark side of the Earth
Chris and Tom are safely outside ISS, hard at work in the vacuum of space, looking for signs of the ammonia leak. THAT was a busy AM inside.Do you hear how different their voices sound at the suit's low pressure? Turns out in the 4.2 psi oxygen you can't whistle - air's too thin.
A lone jet draws a straight line across the Tatras

If Musk gets Falcon 9 and Dragon to be 100% reusable, then all bets are off. Orbital manned flight will get below a half million a person during our lifetimes.
That's a lot of money, but definitely doable to anyone with the will to go for it.

That was awesome! Some thoughts:
- That is a VERY strange song choice for an astronaut to sing, particularly IN space.
- What's the deal with firemen, police, and astronauts sporting the push-broom?
- I like it better than Bowie's version.
- I couldn't help but think of the Flight of the Conchords 'Bowie' episode.When the government pays, the government controls.
