Check out this photo of me with my Missouri S&T shirt on. From this picture, you can get a sense of how upside-down a lot of things are up here. Today's question is from Jacob.
Where have you been in space?
-- Jacob (Team Spirit)
MAGNUS: On my first mission I visited the International Space Station for only 11 days. Now, on my second mission, I will be living here for about four months. It is bigger than it was when I was here six years ago because we have been building it with every shuttle flight. The shuttle that is picking me up in February is bringing the very last piece, so I will see it as I fly away in its final form. That is very exciting. We are working on a program that will take us back to the moon and I expect that will happen some time in the 2020 time frame. Perhaps I will have a chance to go, who knows. Your generation will be spending lots of time there though!
