You've flown on Endeavor, Columbia, and Atlantis. Of the three shuttles (and four flights), which is your favorite? Also, what do you think of NASA's proposed Orion 'EM-2' mission, which plans to send a two man crew to a captured asteroid in lunar orbit?

Hello, and thank you for hosting this AMA!

At what point do you expect Orion to go through maximum stress and heating during the reentry process? How does this point compare with the much faster return trajectories that would be experienced from the Moon and Mars?

Hello all! Thank you for hosting the AMA, two questions, if you don't mind

1-How hard is it to fly Orion, compared with the Space Shuttle and the Apollo C/SM block?

2-Any chance of an official Orion pack for KSP any time soon? ;)

Hi Ken! You seem to like tackling subjects neglected and/or inaccurately portrayed by other 'documentarians'. So, following this line, what's a little focused on part of history (E.G. The early struggle of transatlantic shipping, airships, Etc.) that you'd like to portray sometime in the future?
