On parenting and science education - when Mum is an astronaut! Julie Payette video interview

A good short interview with Canadian Space Shuttle astronaut Julie Payette about being the mother of two and science education in the home.



Julie was CapCom (Capsule Communicator - the main comms person between Mission Control and a space crew for several missions - I saw her quite often on NASA TV. NASA prefers to use an experienced astronaut to spearhead communications and ensure important information is not lost between two very busy worksites.
