Meet the Nashvillian Stuck In Outer Space

Navy veteran and Middle Tennessee-born astronaut Butch Wilmore was one of two NASA test pilots who flew the Boeing Starliner to the International Space Station last June. The spacecraft malfunctioned, stranding Wilmore and co-pilot Suni Williams aboard the ISS until next February. Thanks to the good people at NASA for connecting executive producer Whitney Pastorek with Butch for today’s out-of-this world interview, and to the kids at Una Elementary — which Butch attended from first to third grade — for their great questions! A video of Butch floating aboard the ISS during this conversation can be seen here. Want some more City Cast Nashville news?
