Great NewsNation interview with @connellmcshane regarding the recent air leaks on the Russian PrK xfer tunnel that connects to the Zvezda module. Crew originally had to hunker up in the SpaceX Dragon. Repaired 1 hole, 1 to go! Back to normal ops!

Incredible honor to receive an Honorary PhD from Dr David Mendoza Armas & @UNIVIMoficial, the Universidad Virtual del Estado de Michoacán. Being recognized in my parents’ home state makes this distinction even more special. Deeply humbled, grateful & honored. ¡Gracias, Michoacán!

Awesome video of the Orion capsule separating from the European made Service Module. The capsule’s thermal protection system is so shiny you can see the reflection of the Service Module during the separation! @SPACEdotcom @NASA space.com/space-exploration/…

As a UC Regent I chair the National Labs committee & just visited where I started my career, Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory. Great to see they are still doing cutting edge research including net positive energy for the National Ignition Facility! @llnl_gov @UofCalifornia

Reaching for the Stars Foundation hosts the annnual Science Blast for 1,000 5th graders from Stockton, Lodi & Tracy at University of the Pacific (@UOPacific).
Why? Because it was in 5th grade when I watched Apollo 17 Moon Landing & told myself: This is where I belong! #DreamBIG
