Astronauts and Politics
Did you know that when Scott Kelly went into orbit around the earth for a year for the United States of America there were Russians with him and Japanese? They returned in early 2016. He has known the Russian astronaut, Mischa, for 15 years and called him "my brother from another mother", which he says Mischa likes. If we are orbiting the earth with the Russians and others, it doesn't make sense why we can't figure out our differences in other areas. Scott Kelly said they don't worry about the politics, they let the leaders worry about that. They don't talk politics. Mischa said maybe if both presidents went into space for a whole year there would be no more disagreements. I don't know about that, but wouldn't it be awesome to send Putin and Trump into space for a year, maybe Kim Jong Un too? They could work out all their differences in the very close confines of a space station. Just the thought of it makes me feel happy!
