From orbit: Launch was awesome!! I am feeling great, working hard, & enjoying the magnificent views, the adventure of a lifetime has begun!

Can we save the planet from a devastating asteroid impact? Looks like we can! Learn my take on the new findings from @NASA's Asteroid Redirection Test and the likelihood of an asteroid impacting Earth by watching my latest interview on @TopStoryNBC

Last month I had the honor to deliver the keynote address at the @StateStreet Investment Management 2026 Distribution Summit, the theme of the event was "Reach for the Stars." My messaging included building trust in your organization, being the mission control center for your colleagues, and putting the mission above individual accomplishments. Lessons that apply in space and in the financial sector. @WSB_Speakers

Astronaut Jasmin Moghbeli was at the @IntrepidMuseum for Kids Week, it was a pleasure catching up with her, along with some of my students from the @Columbia Space Initiative, and also some surprise guests.

I was honored to deliver the keynote at the @klaviyo "Go-to-Market Kickoff" meeting last month in Austin, TX. The theme was "Own the Frontier" combining both space and western themes to inspire the team to continue to drive their amazing growth.

@timbe2 @klaviyo Thanks for having me!

Cool having @Astro_Mike join us at @klaviyo SKO! 🚀🌕

I had the pleasure to deliver the keynote address at the @Shell Global Lubricants Division 2026 Extended Leadership Team Meeting in Vancouver - I spoke about how resilience, innovative thinking, and storytelling can drive competitive success. We even had time to enjoy some outdoor winter activities, thanks for having me! @caaspeakers

The first flight of astronauts to the moon in over 40 years will have to wait at least a few more weeks, here are my thoughts on the status of this historic flight from my interview with @NBCNewsNow

#OTD 23 years ago, we experienced the unimaginable - the loss of Space Shuttle Columbia and its crew of 7 astronaut colleagues and friends. I still miss them terribly, not a day goes by that do not think about them. Was an honor to know each of them - a great group of heroes we should all try to emulate.

What's next for the astronauts back on Earth, medical equipment in space, the future of space medicine, and, most importantly - sticking together with your team in space and on Earth, all in my latest interview with @TODAYshow

What a night splashdown is like, how reentry from space effects the body, what can 3 crew members accomplish on ISS, and the future of space medical operations were all part of my interview on @NBCNews this morning.

For the first time ever astronauts on the International Space Station are ending their mission and returning home early due to a medical concern with one of the crew members, here are my thoughts on the topic and on the upcoming moon mission during my interview with @CBSNews

For the first time ever, NASA is bringing a spaceflight crew home early due to a medical concern, here are my thoughts on the situation from my interview with the @TODAYshow this morning.

Final days of the season, visiting holidays trees around NYC: @rockcenternyc, @metmuseum, and @harvardclubny - which one do you like the best?

I recently had the pleasure to deliver an after dinner keynote at the @CrownCastle leadership team event, the largest U.S. provider of shared wireless infrastructure. It was especially fun catching up with my friend and former NASA colleague Phil West, thanks Phil to you and CEO Christian Hillabrant for having me be a part of your team for the evening, and for helping all of us in the U.S. stay connected!

Two astronauts are better than one! I had so much fun during my latest speaking event teaming up with my dear friend and fellow funny astronaut @GarrettReisman, thanks to Jacquelyn Wahlberg from @LAIspeaker for making it happen and for providing adult supervision at the event!
