Crowd embraces Chris Hadfield [ * fromn ASTRONAUT on page 5 childhooij, whcn his dreains of t»ecorning an astronaut "were a flat impossibility. 1I want kids to realize this (space travel) is what Canadians do, and that onc of their own is involved. This is oomething they can do," he said. He told the crowd of two Canadian astronauts who wilI be space-bound within the next year. The Milton native himself hopes to malce another trip before the tantn of the century. Lt. Colonel Hadfield is actively involved in every mission the space program under- takes. He was the firot Canadian to operate the Canadarmn in space, and is hoping to do s0 again when construction ot the inter- national space station begins. Canadians, he explained, are involved in every aspect of the space programt includ- ing science development and medical research. "This is an exciting, unique time for Canadians and the space program. We're among the tirot generation to sec a perma- nient presence in space. Canadians don't have to be învotved in this, we choose to be involved. It's a greal feeling to be on board a train that's leaving earth. Within these kids' lifetime, thereill be people living on the moon, and perhaps on Mars as well." Having already fulfilled his dream of space travel, Lt. Colonel Hadfield said bis next wish is t0 'make a space walk'. H-e contends this will be entirely differ- cnt from bis first joumey and won't neces- sarily be better or worse. "It's not a competition. You don't stop eating just because you've had a great meal." he said.
