I Am Not As Eloquent As Stephane

What You Aren't Ready For Being The First Time In Space - On An Emotional And Intellectual Level - Is How Looking Down At Earth Will Profoundly Affect You. Over The Long Term, It Has Changed The Way I Think About Planet Earth. When You Go Around The Planet And Look Down, You Think About The Fact That This Is The Cradle Of Humanity, That This Is A Place Where Seven Billion People, 200 Countries, Live Side By Side, That We Share This Place And There's Nowhere Else To Go.

Through These Ongoing Activities And Possibly In The Future, A Canadian Will Go Live And Work On The International Space Station And We Will Continue To Make Canadians Proud Of Our Achievements In Space.

I Went To Military College In Canada And Graduated As An Officer In The Navy But Also As An Engineer.

I Like The Opportunity To Travel The World And Work In Close Company With Other People.

New Standards For Safety Are Now In Place And Canada Has Helped Provide Tools And Techniques That Were Needed. Technologies Like These Are Innovative And Represent Great Achievements For Us.
