My first guest of season 3 is my friend and colleague, Garrett Reisman. Garrett is a NASA veteran who flew on all three space shuttles. During these missions Garrett performed three space walks. After leaving NASA Garrett joined Elon Musk at SpaceX, most recently as the Director of Space Operations, and now a Senior Advisor. He now works full time as a Professor of Astronautical Engineering at USC. I met Garrett on my show, For All Mankind, where he serves as Consultant, Producer, and sometimes actor.
