#BeAnAstronaut – When an American hero speaks, we take note! Brig. Gen. Charles McGee, a trailblazer who served as a Tuskegee Airman and flew 409 combat missions in World War II, the Korean War, and the Vietnam War, stopped by to encourage the next generation of astronauts to fly to new heights. We'll start accepting astronaut applications Monday for the first time in four years. If you think you have the “right stuff,” we and Brig. Gen. McGee want you to apply!
