The news of Tryggvason's death on Monday (April 5) was first shared online by former NASA astronaut Leland Melvin, who trained with Tryggvason as a member of the U.S. space agency's 1998 group of international astronaut candidates. "Rest In Peace Penguin classmate. It was an honor to train and work with you," Melvin wrote on Instagram on Wednesday (April 6). "Condolences to the family. Much love."  |
