On a cold & stormy Florida morning I first left Earth. Shuttle Atlantis's power was staggering, crushing & shaking us for nearly 9 minutes to make the sanctity of orbit. 30 years ago today.

Tomorrow is 11 Nov - Remembrance Day. I wear a poppy to honour all soldiers, but especially my great-grandfather John Austin Hadfield, and his younger brother Vic who was killed in the hell of Passchendaele, in Flanders Fields, where poppies grow.

When asteroids slam into Earth they create a warm, wet local environment. These 3 guys dug through 78-million-year-old core samples to show how quickly life moves into the hellscape, to understand Earth history. news.westernu.ca/2025/09/life...

Seek the sunlight in your life, always. Be optimistic - it’s harder than pessimism, but far more joyful. You choose how to live.

Bizarrely beautiful hi-rises. I admire the imagination of the architects, and the skill of the builders.

I have the coolest knit hat: glow-in-the-dark Space Invaders.
Perfect for spacewalks.
(thanks to the lovely lady in the book signing line who made it for me!)
