The first Canadian commander of the International Space Station, Chris
Hadfield, is scheduled to return to earth this evening with U.S.
astronaut Tom Marshburn and Russian cosmonaut Roman Romanenko.

only done whatever it this they do on the ISS, he's maintained constant
contact with the people of this strange little blue ball via Twitter
and other media. But he obviously saved the best for last.

"For those who may ask what they can do to honor Neil, we have a simple

down at you, think of Neil Armstrong and give him a wink." -Official
Armstrong family statement.
Education is what survives when what has been learned has been forgotten. -B.F. Skinner
