大西さんも私と似た様な感じかな？プロとしての技術を維持するのは簡単ではないですからね。
私も国防の任に当たっている方々への感謝と尊敬の気持ちを忘れずにしつつも、その任務は以前の仲間や後輩達にお任せして、今の自分の道を極める様に頑張ろうと思います。まずは、目の前の任務に集中します！

#TBT to an opportunity I had to fly in Houston a few years back with our outstanding RCAF members of the 410 Tactical Fighter Operation Training Squadron. This was a training, currency, and development exercise with my colleagues with my colleagues @astro_kutryk and @astro_jeremy

The core tenets of our Polaris Ghost Squadron are to inspire the next generation of aviation and aerospace enthusiasts while supporting St. Jude. We were honored to host the Bushman family for a visit with our team ahead of our Saturday performance at SUN ’n FUN ☀️

I can't believe it's been almost 7 years since I first launched into space. No matter how much training you have, it just can't prepare you for how awesome space is. Everything is different and you have to approach it that way, it's almost like your mind works in three dimensions…

Coming up... Another trip back to Japan later this month. Then a visit to Houston and KSC in June. Its been a busy year for travel.

The Eagle II with Lab Pod (1/48) was quite possibly one the most successful kits from #MPCRound2 . The only downside (to me) was the optional dorsal booster pack that was sold separately. It remains one of my top favorites in the collection. #space1999 #eagle #eagle lab #metaeagle

Went to Tsukuba Space Center today. Seeing the Kibo module mission control room on the tour was pretty cool. Would definitely recommend visiting.

Honor to join the Axiom Space team. Looking forward to contributing to Axiom Space's growing presence and partnerships in the Asia Pacific region!
