One of these Astrobees is not like the others. Last week, Kayla joined in on the fun with Bumble Bee and Queen Bee, two Astrobee robots doing some test flights on the International Space Station.

Shockingly bright as I opened our shades, the Moon lingered, strutting by. Lots of time to find good camera settings! Soon we’ll be exploring our neighbor again.

Beirut & snow-covered mountains to the East, taken on Feb 12, 7:20 AM local. I’m going to miss being able to glance out the windows and see views like this. Such a beautiful planet.

The good ship Piers Sellers, named after a very good man, launches today. I’m very grateful to have crossed paths with Piers and proud of what he stood for. His good-natured humor and ready laugh will never be forgotten.

Fantastic place, occupied by amazing people, working for all of humanity. I’ll forever cherish the memories of serving on the International Space Station. Now, though, I’m thrilled to be back on Mother Earth!

I just came across this and thought it was significant, both for the workplace and personal relationships, “Unexpressed emotions will never die. They are buried alive and will come forth later in uglier ways.” ― Sigmund Freud #QOTD Leadercast #emotionalintelligence #leadership
