An afternoon with Chris Hadfield

Join world renowned astronaut Chris Hadfield, as we celebrate the launch of his latest edge-of-your-seat thriller The Defector.

A veteran of three spaceflights, he crewed the US Space Shuttle twice, piloted the Russian Soyuz, helped build space station Mir, conducted two space walks, and served as Commander of the International Space Station. He was also NASA's Director of Operations in Russia.

As well as being a seasoned astronaut, Chris was the top test pilot in both the US Air Force and the US Navy, and a Cold War fighter pilot intercepting armed Soviet bombers in North American airspace.

And who can forget his zero-gravity version of David Bowie's 'Space Oddity' which received more than 50 million views.

This event is suitable for audiences aged 11 years and above.
