The Shat and an Astronaut Tweet

The Day William Shatner Tweeted at an Astronaut and the Astronaut Replied!

This afternoon, the actor took to Twitter to ask a question of the Canadian Space Agency's Chris Hadfield, who is currently serving as the International Space Station's Flight Engineer for Expedition 34 -- and who has indeed been tweeting from space.

I saw that through Neil deGrasse Tyson's Facebook page. Pure awesome. I love the astronaut's response!

Not really relevant, but it occurred to me that a dyslexic might read the thread title as "The Sheet and an Astronaut Twat."

I love it. Hadfield has also been taking pictures of different Canadian locales. Magnificent shots - Kingston included.

I posted this over in the thread bomb thread but it's worth repeating.
