Mike, I loved this. I will play it for my boys. Great tips! Weare trying to 'embrace' it as well. One thing that I'm doing everyother weekend for my three boys is having a 'Shelter In Place-Party. ' So far we have had an Italanian Festival with wine tasting (adults only, Olive tasting (kids, Lasagna dinner and watching My Cousin Vinny. We aslo had a Luau with a talent show and Spam cooking contest, then Easter-In-Place and next weekend we'll have The Celebration of Science. I'll incorporate this video into that night for sure. Thank you and stay well (everyone)

First I-d like to Thank Senator Barbara A. Mikulski (D-Md) for getting you the funds to fix that most amazing machine. And also a heartfelt Thank You for doing it! The improvements you (and thousands of others) made to extend the operability of Hubble made science greater. But like you looking at the Earth we non-scientists love the aesthetics Hubble brings us. It is important to appreciate what-s on and around the pale blue dot.

Thanks for putting this together. I ordered a kayak and PS4 that I've been putting off and I'm excited to enjoy the the weather (carefully and distanced of course) and play a new game that I've had my eye on for awhile. Might pick up a keyboard and try my hand at that if this lasts a bit longer. If it doesn't take much longer for us to get back out there, then I will have myself a hobby in place for the near future -

You have a face of a liar, there is no spaceship and Yes, I will believe you only when you stop recording the Moon landing with potato cameras and blurry live stream, also until NASA = Narcissists And Shills Association, stop taking people Tax money and give it to the people in need. .

I really, really like the sentiment: -Be mission control for someone else. - I co-facilitate a NAMI peer support group and that's exactly what my role is. I'm there, listening to others, offering support and feedback--and it buoys my spirits every time. Thanks for the metaphor!

Let-s think: Canada has 40 million people but only 22k cases, the US 330 but 503k cases. So. Canada 550 cases per million, the US 1, 524 per million. Canada has managed to do 3. times better than the US. The people are equally intelligent and resourceful, it is BAD LEADERSHIP.

If anyone knows how to spend long periods of time dealing with isolation it's an astronaut. What a great idea for a video with so many folks now currently sheltering-in-place. Hats off to Mike Massimino for sharing his stories, and to Wired for putting this video up.

Am listening to Mike's book on Audible at the moment. I can now see why, when you have a bunch of otherwise equally qualified people, that you would like to have Mike's personality thrown into the mix for a flight. Great video Mike and awesome book. Thanks.

I like it so much to watch videos of the space station and to see how you lived there and the beautiful videos of earth, and how you got there and back. It's amazing!
Are you not thinking of how wonderful God made this universe?

I read the article that Scott Kelley did in the New York Times about coming up with a schedule, although I don't quite adhere to it as tightly as I think I should I find my days are filled with interesting stuff that I enjoy
