Canadian astronaut and future space station commander
Chris Hadfield has a full load of tasks to tend to when he
gets to orbit, but he's also planning to fit in some time
with one of his passions: the guitar. A Larrivée Parlor
acoustic guitar, to be exact.
The guitar is already waiting for Hadfield on the International
Space Station (ISS), where astronauts have been using it
to serenade each other since its delivery by the space shuttle
Discovery's STS-105 mission in 2001. For example, Dan
Burbank, the station's current Expedition 30 commander,
has been making use of it in his down time.
