Secret Science Club rockets into Symphony Space with another special edition!

Monday, October 23, 8PM, Secret Science Club North presents Astronaut & Spaceman Author Mike Massimino @ Symphony Space (Shh... use code SECRET15 to get $15 tickets.)

Blast into the stratosphere with astronaut and best-selling author Mike Massimino. Ever wonder what it would be like to travel 17,500 mph? How would it feel to spacewalk and see Earth 350 miles below? Find out as Astro Mike takes us on a wild ride through outer space, microgravity, astronaut dining, and the future of space travel!  

Mike Massimino shot into orbit on two NASA shuttle missions on which he spent over 30 hours spacewalking, did repairs on the Hubble Space Telescope, and became the first human to tweet from space. Now a professor of mechanical engineering at Columbia University and a public advocate for space exploration and education, he hosts the Science Channel series The Planets, has a recurring role as himself on The Big Bang Theory, and regularly appears on StarTalk, CNN, and NOVA. “Spaceman: An Astronaut’s Unlikely Journey to Unlock the Secrets of the Universe” is his first book.

“Every generation of astronauts needs a storyteller—a person with wit, humor, and passion who has lived our collective dreams of space exploration and returned to tell us all about it. Mike Massimino is that person. He's that astronaut.”—Neil deGrasse Tyson
