Astronaut Rejection Part II of II
July 7th, 2009 by Ken Mankoff
Yesterday I received my second astronaut rejection letter. The first was a few months ago from ESA and this one was from NASA. I am not surprised but still sad. The nine new astronauts (called AsCans as they are Astronaut Candidates until their first flight) selected by NASA are introduced here.
In related news, as of July 1st I am officially a PhD. student at the University of California, Santa Cruz.
