We have the incredible honor to announce an public event and signing with astronaut Kevin Ford. Space Consult and Technik Museum Speyer will exclusively host a visit of Kevin Ford to Germany from May 25-28, 2017!
Kevin Ford flew as pilot onboard Space Shuttle Discovery, mission STS-128, to the International Space Station from Aug. 29 to Sept. 12, 2009. On his second mission, he flew as the flight engineer on board Soyuz TMA-06M for a long duration mission aboard the ISS from Oct. 23, 2012 to March 16, 2013. He was the flight engineer on Expedition 33 and the station commander on Expedition 34. We feel privileged Kevin has chosen us to spend some memorable days in Germany. He will be the 41st astronaut or cosmonaut who visits the museum and the exhibition "Apollo and Beyond."
