Wow, what an amazing video! Go Canada!

And how come WE don’t have a cool astronaut like that?

Just watching his press conference now. He’s such an inspiring figure. I like his quoting Kipling about “filling the unforgiving minute”.

Dude is a dude.

Edit: And he is such a gifted communicator. I hope he can continue with the whole outreach thing, as he doesn’t expect to go back into space.

This is worth sharing, I think. [Zen Pencils did a comic strip](http://zenpencils.com/comic/106-chris-hadfield-an-astronauts-advice/) based on a Redditt AMA Hadfield did a few months ago.
