Out of this world to visit the place I started as a space engineering graduate -
@AirbusSpace
in the UK. So great to meet the Aussies kicking-goals there, drive the Mars rover, and speak with staff, students from
@CranfieldUni
, and local schools. Thanks for having me!

An important part of an astronaut's work is to support their nation's scientists as a test subject. I appreciated the opportunity to help advance this Aussie research recently at the European Astronaut Centre

@DrGWaddington
