Speaker: Hoot Gibson

Wow! What ana amazing speaker! As the intros were going on some guy sits next to me. I look up and it's Hoot! Reid and I talk to him for a minute and I get a pic too.

His presentation was a lot of personal pictures, but that's all he needed. He told amazing stories about the incredible life he has led. He was part of the first selection of astronauts in1978. He met his wife in the astronaut training program. Flown 5 missions. Docked the shuttle to Mir. Wow what a life!

Next up is our final mission: Discovery. I am Mission Scientist and will be communicating with the Space Station. Team Harmony rides again!!
