Chris Hadfield is a veteran astronaut and former CF-18 fighter pilot and has taken part in of two space missions, STS-100 in 2001 and STS-74 in 1995. During STS-100, he spent 11 days aboard the International Space Station and became the first ever Canadian to perform a spacewalk as he installed the Canadian robotic arm, the Canadarm2, onto the Station. For his first mission back in 1995, he flew to the Russian Space Station Mir, and operated the shuttle robotic arm, the Canadarm.
Here he is giving a talk about his experiences with the CF-18 fighter jet.
