Standard Orbit Captain

I’m sorry but this made my inner geek give a little  ‘Squeeeeeee!!!!’

William Shatner tweets at astronaut, who replies from space

It's the future "Star Trek" predicted. Here's Captain Kirk (OK, OK, William Shatner, who played him) sending a quick message to a man in space – Canadian Astronaut Chris Hadfield, who's on the International Space Station -- who then replies, from space, to confirm that he is in fact, in space.

    I think Hadfield has just had enough time to become a character so hopefully he won't get shot by a disrupter when he beams down to the planet.

Due to the amount of spam that happens as soon as I enable 'Anon' comments. I'm afraid you'll have to log in to comment. It's that or I turn on the 'CAPCHA' and nobody likes that
