Exclusive Q&A With 1st Swiss Astronaut | Claude Nicollier on Space Travel

What an honor! When your childhood hero comes to visit you at work! It was a great meeting with Claude Nicollier, and we also attended the briefing for the first fully-equipped EVA (extravehicular activity in space) training together. Many thanks to Hervé Stevenin for the fantastic training.
