Yesterday we enjoyed a concert from the Great Lakes Navy Band here Space Center Houston. They're celebrating Houston Navy Week and honored all our Navy Astronauts during their performance, including USMC Colonel Nicole Mann and USN Captain Josh Cassada who are onboard International Space Station!

What a privilege to get to be onboard to greet Crew-4 upon their return to Earth. Many thanks to the crew of the Mighty MEGAN for all your work to bring them home safely. P.S. Next time, can I drive??

Just watched Return to Space documentary, it brought back all the feels! During pandemic we didn’t really get to celebrate the historic achievement of Demo-2 with Bob Behnken Col. Doug Hurley SpaceX NASA so I’m glad to see this story told.

Thank you to the faculty, staff, and especially students of my alma mater UCLA Samueli Engineering for a wonderful visit last week. I loved seeing the campus up close, visiting with old friends, and making new ones!
