Astronaut and artist Nicole Stott has advice for us about social distancing
Nicole Stott is a talented artist and retired astronaut who spent more than 100 days living in space on the Space Shuttle and International Space Station. Stott is one of several astronauts who in recent days has been asked to share their advice on isolation and social distancing.
"Nothing beats that first hug after landing," Stott says.
From the New York Times:
[In the video above, Stott] reflects on the three months she spent on the International Space Station, far from her husband and 7-year-old son. Living on the space station, being alone on a spacewalk, watching lightning storms crisscross the planet all these experiences taught her that were all inherently connected, even when were physically far away.
