Coolest astronaut ever!

But I guess this will be a busking thread of ONE song.
I dont know about others, but my NASA application was rejected the other day :(

Seemes the times they are-a-changing, Al.



... and American astronaut Ron Garan can play a few licks,too.
This video is a float-through of the space station, in search of Ron.
At the 3min30sec mark, his fellow astronauts find him with in the docked Soyuz spaceship, playing guitar.

Not so fast, Al :) There's hope for a young'un like you at 2min16 sec mark in the following video of a Q-and-A session
with high school students (xcuz the commercial at start). At about 4min30sec, Chris Hadfield mentions his age: 53 !
You might also find the guitar care info (given at the start of the video) to be useful when the time comes.
