Hi Damaris,
long time. all is well here. your blogs are interesting and keep me updated about NASA happenings, all launches and shuttle crews.
Its time you kept us all updated with how is your training to make it to the astronaut core going. How are you training, physically and mentally. What subjects you are studying or courses you are taking. things that keep you inspired and motivated. Tell us all about that.
Your keen blog reader,
Siddharth.
