Hank Green is a creator and science communicator who desperately wants us to realize how bizarre and special we are. Every week he has a conversation with one of the eight billion weirdos living on planet Earth.
The commander of NASA’s Artemis II mission slid into Hank’s DMs on Instagram asking to talk. Their conversation covers what it’s like to leave Earth behind, why astronauts need to be active followers, why Reid was wary about becoming a meme, and who was actually farthest away from Earth at the mission’s peak. Plus, they talk about Reid’s iconic Hello, World photograph, and the accidental time-lapse that captivated the internet.
