Space Shuttle PILOT Gets Candid About Launch & Flight

This was HUGE bucket list item for me to interview an astronaut. I was honored to sit down with Tom Henricks, a 4x shuttle astronaut (2 as pilot, 2 as commander), to hear his candid thoughts on what it was like launching, flying, and landing the space shuttle.
