Col. Chris Hadfield of the Canadian Space Agency visited the Ontario Science Centre and spoke about some of the very human aspects of space travel. Thank you so much for the feature YouTube...minutes before this was recorded I said to Chris Hadfield that I wanted to put his video on the internet and make him famous...(a joke...since he is already famous). He is a terrific guy and a great Canadian scientist. And speaking of Canada...there will be a Canadian YouTube meetup on 888 at the Ontario Science Centre in Toronto. Check out the 888torontomeetup channel... : ) http://www.ontariosciencecentre.ca
