Just heard on the news that astronaut, Kate Rubins and two fellow crew members, returned to earth Saturday after spending 115 days in space on the international space station. She’s originally from Napa, CA which is why the local news is featuring her.

Californians in spaaaaaaaace!

Awesome! I wanted to be an astronaut when I was younger. So did my brother. We were going to become asteroid miners.

Well, alot of folks think us Californians are space cadettes. :grin:

I’ve actually got a fascination with California, especially L.A. , and actually watch youtube videos about them on random occasions. Sad but true!

Reminds me of a song

Ever seen the parent trap??? That takes place in Napa California, London England and New York I believe :slight_smile:

Two twins separated at birth, one lives in Napa, one in London , are both sent to the same camp in New York, then they change places to get their parents back together. It was Lindsey lohans debut I believe :wink:

I just tried to watch it, but unfortunately it wouldn’t let me. Bah. Stupid cnn. It wants a username and password from my TV provider. I’ve no idea what that means. Some tech entrepreneur I’d make! :smile:
