East Coast Breakfast welcomes NASA astronaut Dr Don Thomas
Updated | By East Coast Breakfast
After four missions into space, it was a pleasure to welcome NASA astronaut, engineer, public speaker, and motivator of all things science, maths, and dreams - Dr Don Thomas.
Listen as the team chats to Dr Don Thomas in the podcast, then read more below:
Dr Don Thomas is in South Africa for the Living Maths Space Tour, where he'll be sharing a series of public talks and school addresses in Cape Town, Joburg, and Durban.
The Living Maths Space Tour is an initiative which aims to encourage learners to get passionate about the subjects of Science, Technology, Engineering, and Maths.
Don told the team that heΒ applied to the NASA Space Programme four times before getting accepted. In addition to that, he answered some very interesting questions from some of our listeners.
