Thanks to @JoshDobbs for stepping into our zone! While in Ohio, the athlete (and former @NASA extern) stopped by to tour our research labs. With his educational background in aerospace engineering, he fit right into our huddle. Check out his visit to the Neil Armstrong Test Facility, home to the world’s largest and most powerful space simulation chambers.
