My son's school is being visited today by Senator Kelly and Administrator Nelson in person, where they will take questions from students and also talk to the ISS.

I'll wear my Speedmaster, but won't be "that guy" and wear my NASA hat too. Should be a fun talk, and being that this is the day after school got out for the summer, likely a bit less crowded - we will see. No idea if I will get the opportunity to speak with either of them one on one.

Sadly I didn't think to stick my wrist up in the shot.

It was a great talk - there was no time given to be able to talk to either one of them one on one unfortunately.

Very cool thing that you and your son will always remember. I still remember when Buzz Aldrin visited my elementary school.
