#605 Sailing with astronauts

Leading us around the Atlantic is our academic dean and NASA astronaut, Kathy Thornton.

And teaching us astronomy and celestial navigation is NASA astronaut, Pinky Nelson.

To honor these two veteran explorers on board, six of us - Katie, Sarah, Dave, Julie, Kelly, and I - brought our own flight suits with us on the voyage and we wear them proudly for important events such as the Adventures in Space presentation, a talent show, and Halloween.  

On Halloween, our flight crew hosted the two astronauts for lunch followed by a photo op with the captain and hotel director.

 

 We know how lucky we are to be traveling with these two expert explorers here on planet Earth.

 

Yours in exploring with the experts,

Mary
