As you may have realised, I think Commander Chris Hadfield is a bit of a legend. From his multitude of science experiments aboard the ISS, to his phenomenal photographs of Earth, to his great music, Chris Hadfield is amazing.
I hope he has a wonderful retirement, and gets to spend more time with his family and friends. You’ve touched the whole world, and we’re listening. Onwards!
