Finding Founders

Utter silence. Dr. Franklin Chang-Diaz felt the pulse of his racing heart, the countdown from ground control, and the sense that he’s been here before. I mean he’s prepared his whole life for this moment, the moment of lifting off into space. He’s been preparing since he was a kid, from sitting in a cardboard spaceship all the way to launching into space more times than any human in history. But how did he get here? Well Dr. Franklin Chang-Diaz is a record breaking NASA astronaut, with 7 flights into space, and the CEO of the AdAstra Rocket Company. He’s managed to move to a new country, learn a new language, graduate at the top of his class, and persistently chase his dream all the way to space. Now, we launch ourselves back to a time, when space travel was only a dream.
