It figures that the coolest thing ever would be a Canadian!  :D

Seriously, Chris Hadfield is awesome.  I have been following his career since his first space flight.  Not only is he almost single handedly making the space program "cool" again, he's also humanizing it, and showing everyone that spaceflight isn't just for hotshot pilots.

oh... I thought this thread was going to be about 'ME' !  :facepalm:
this is my 1000th post   :D

We all know reaching 1000 posts is much more important than spaceflight- eventually everybody will go to space!  :D

There already is a thread about Taxi Dad getting to 1000 posts.... check out the No Life Club...

http://forum.multitool.org/index.php/topic,44952.0.html

You'd think a guy with a thousand posts would know to look around a bit... I guess Kirky didn't train him well enough....

Check out the rest of his videos. He is the best PR man for space I have heard of in my generation(Born in the 80's). Richard Branson should hire him.

Thanks for sharing. I hadn't seen that.

As for blaming Kirky. I shan't. 

He does deserve a few  :pok:. You know....just in case. :D

You know what they say: Can't beat an astronaut.
 Or at least the Axe (deodorant) commercial I have seen lately says that.  :facepalm:
Cool vid.
