A historic transition for Canada's presence in orbit
In short: Watch Chris Hadfield reflect on his five-and-a-half-month mission as he prepares for a milestone achievement in space exploration.
During an interview with the Montreal-based network TVA on February 21, Flight Engineer Chris Hadfield discussed his progress aboard the International Space Station. The video captures a pivotal moment in his mission as he prepares to become the first Canadian commander of the orbital laboratory.
Hadfield is scheduled to take command of the outpost for the Expedition 35 increment in mid-March. He will lead the complex until mid-May, at which point he is slated to return to Earth via a Russian Soyuz spacecraft.
