That's funny - thanks for sharing. ;D

It's always nice seeing that Star Trek/space program connection, since both share that very special place in my heart.

@Cmdr_Hadfield @WilliamShatner Neil & I would've tweeted from the moon if we could have but I would prefer to tweet from Mars. Maybe by 2040
