My Face in Space
Happy Halloween, everyone! Just thought I'd end this month with these two screenshots that were taken from a video filmed during the Polaris Dawn mission two months ago.
Thanks to My Face in Space, an online campaign where people were invited to submit photos of themselves to fly on SpaceX's Crew Dragon Resilience capsule last September (with the proceeds going to St. Jude Children's Research Hospital), I got to see a selfie that I sent months ago float around inside the cabin of Resilience with Earth shining brightly outside the window!
I've flown my name on dozens of space missions since 1996, but to actually see myself virtually floating beyond Earth's atmosphere? Absolutely surreal.
I've also included the certificate that My Face in Space sent me after the Polaris Dawn mission had concluded on September 15. Check out the YouTube video below to see the photos that other participants included on this flight!
