Back in 1977, a whole generation of kids watched the moon landing and wanted to be an astronaut when they grew up. While most of them ultimately ended up in other more down to earth careers, one little Canadian boy, Chris Hadfield, actually fulfilled his childhood dream and spend his 35 year career as an astronaut.<\/p>\n<p>Colonel Chris Hadfield will be speaking at the SSE arena and it\u2019s bound to be incredibly interesting.\u00a0 It will be an amazing night out for the whole family. You might remember Chris from his rendition of David Bowie\u2019s Space Oddity that he performed on the ISS that went viral.<\/p>\n<p>He\u2019s certainly got a lot to talk about. He was the first Canadian ever to walk in space, he\u2019s flown two space shuttle missions and he served as commander on the ISS. Five months spent in space is certainly going to give you some great stories to tell, and he\u2019ll be telling plenty of them at the SSE, along with some fascinating and rarely seen video footage.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Get involved with the NI Science Festival<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>This event kick starts the NI Science Festival that runs from 15<sup>th<\/sup> to 25<sup>th<\/sup> February.
