👩🏼🚀 On this day (May 13th) in 2013, Expedition 35 was coming back to earth. The crew included my friend, astronaut Chris Hadfield who had been on the space station (ISS) for 6 months. During this time, he was the first Canadian Commander.
📸 I was in Las Vegas with clients. I took this picture to let Chris know I was thinking of him. I was golfing that day while Chris was getting ready to undock from the ISS. So I wore my Expedition 35 polo shirt.
🙏🏼Chris was in a Soyuz capsule because the U.S. did not have another means of transportation yet at that time. The landing time was 10:30 pm Eastern Time. That was 7:30 pm Vegas time which was right in the middle of a fancy client dinner at a Steak House. So I pulled out my iPad and had everyone at the table watch that hard Soyuz landing 😁 The Soyuz lands on land, unlike our Apollo capsules and now, Dragon capsules that land on the water.
(I breathed a sigh of relief when I saw the big parachute deploy!! I knew all was well at that point.)

Bk at her core. At a fancy dinner with Soyuz landing on the table. Well done. I bet they were impressed 💯💯💯❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
very cool, I had to look up the meaning of Soyuz which means “union” in Russian.
Thanks also for your recent kind words on my tribute post, I appreciate it 🙏
