That was a cool time when he was up there, the space station felt more open to information when he was up there sharing cool stuff as if a regular person like me was up there.

I met him and had a conversation about playing guitar in space. He said he had to adjust how to play since being in free fall really messes with you.

US: Let’s spend our tax dollars on better missiles and planes
China: Let’s a greater navy to patrol the pacific and project power across the globe
Canada: We can afford to send a guitar into space
does it sound the same up there as it would down here?

Fun fact: due to the lack of gravity there is no way to tune a guitar in space
Got to see him speak about his experience at an event during the last eclipse. He didn’t play guitar tho sadly 🙁
No one can hear stairway to heaven in space, unless you’re trapped in the ISS with an acoustic player.
You think he tuned it before and then tuned it when he got up there to see if it changed? lol
Playing in the still-new cupola. I saw that launched! It was the very last night launch of the space shuttle.
