Young Leo has grown up around ESA and NASA technology. His parents have taken him to launches, to space events and they are teaching him all about STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Math). Do you think this will shape him? I think so - and not eve

A look at today's Earth eclipse; our planet moves in between NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory and the Sun. For 1 hour and 10 minutes SDO did not see the Sun as Earth completely blocked it. This image was taken at 07:20 UT and Earth is moving out of the e

Yea! Ripley's Believe It Or Not picked up my story of flying to the edge of space. High school students from Bishop, CA sent me to 128,000 feet with some radiation badges to measure solar storm impact. #stem #science #space #fun

Bryce Canyon is a beautiful National Park with 14 viewpoints along the Canyon's 18-mile scenic drive. This here is the Natural Bridge. Though the name tends to be misleading, Natural Bridge is one of several natural arches in Bryce Canyon and creates a

Good morning from my Labor Day weekend trip. Yesterday I flew across California, Nevada, part of Arizona into Utah. This is from the outside Cedar Breaks National Park - beautiful view looking down into a half-mile deep geologic amphitheater and experie

My astronaut friend Reid Wiseman is now L-271 (Launch minus 271 days): if something goes wrong while re-entering the atmosphere, Max (Commander in the Soyuz) will hit this button which will start spinning their capsule like a bullet shot from a rifle. Thi

My photographer friends will enjoy this. In April Swiss photographer Philipp Schmidli captured a biker riding his bike in front of the Full Moon. Many said it looked like the E.T. poster - so this August Philipp made it really look like the E.T poster. An

I truly believe the Sun is smiling at us - maybe because SDO's near-realtime images are currently unavailable to view online. But no worries, their team is working on getting the problem fixed too. No data will be lost. This particular channel (211 angs

Such a beautiful sunset I got to enjoy tonight up at the Lick Observatory, high above San Jose, California. The observatory, in a Classical Revival style structure, was constructed between 1876 and 1887, from a bequest from James Lick. Before construc

My dear friend Astronaut Reid Wiseman is less than 300 days away from launching to the International Space Station. The training now is very simulations driven. What you can't predict, you can't prevent. Before launch the Exp40/41 crew will enter their

Is this what really happened? Hardly! Apollo 13 was the seventh manned mission in the American Apollo space program and the third intended to land on the Moon. The craft was launched on April 11, 1970, at 13:13 CST from the Kennedy Space Center, Florida

This morning's Zero-G flight was exceptional and more testing was done. I got a chance to fly in no gravity for a few seconds again. What a wonderful feeling. And just like a real astronaut, I was tethered to the experiment box. ( I suspect they knew I wo
