It was so exciting to get to see our friend and former classmate at Scripps Institution of Oceanography Megan McDonald take off on SpaceX today! This is not her first trip to space (not many people can say that!) - she went on the space shuttle back in 2009 to fix the Hubble!
Best wishes to Megan and her crewmates, as well as virtual hugs to her husband (fellow astronaut Bob Behnken, who made this trip last year) and son Theo, is lucky to have such amazing parents!
