#OTD 3/19/2001 @thecarsband "Just What I Needed" was the wakeup song chosen for Cmdr. Bill Shepard on his last day in orbit after 4.5 months as a member of @Space_Station's first crew. 🎵 youtu.be/gvy2yqUHLLg #ISS @NASA @NASAhistory #STS102 #Expedition1

#OTD 3/19/1965: #Voskhod2 crew proved why survival training is as vital as flight prep. After the 1st-ever EVA, Leonov & Belyayev landed deep in the Siberian forest—trading the stars for wolves and sub-zero nights. In exploration, 'home' isn't home until you're out of the woods!

📌🗓️Save the date! I'll be speaking and signing copies of 📚#SHARINGSPACE at 🚀#SpaceCenterHouston on Saturday, March 21 at 2:30PM Hope to see you there! spacecenter.org/featured_event…
