It looks so simple, but there's incredible engineering scrutiny behind parachutes that bring humans back from space. With this test Boeing Space is one step closer. Can't wait to see them fly.
Atlantis--well cared for by Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex for 10 years and counting. Great panel discussion with several veteran astronauts on what it was like 'back in the day'. Thanks Astronaut Scholarship Foundation.
CEIT is the beginning of the home stretch for the #CST100Starliner crew. Great to see them at Kennedy Space Center this week.
New mission patch for the upcoming Starliner Crewed Flight Test mission with veteran astronauts (and artists) Butch Wilmore and Sunita Williams. Nice!
Great to see my friends and NASA Astronauts Butch Wilmore and Sunita Williams back in their Boeing Blue Ascent/Entry pressure suits! Proud of all the work and training they and the team are doing together ahead of #Starliner ’s crewed flight.
Wishing a successful ride for Nicole Mann and Josh Cassada and the whole crew on today's SpaceX #Crew5 launch. It's been a privilege working with them; looking forward to seeing their smiling faces on @ISS soon
Throwback Saturday...11 yrs ago. STS-135 on approach to ISS with Col. Doug Hurley, Sandy Magnus, Rex J. Walheim. So much has changed.
