00:00You know, when I left the space station, Node 1 was pretty spartan and immaculate.
00:05It's kind of accumulated a lot of stuff over the years.
00:08And with 275 launches to ISS, have you guys hit anything for future crews
00:14or lost something up there that you're still looking for?
00:16Well, we might have found something that someone had been looking for for quite a while.
00:37Our good friend, Frank Rubio, who headed home, has been blamed for quite a while for eating the tomato.
00:45But we can exonerate him.
00:49We found the tomatoes.
00:52Awesome, awesome.
00:53I think we'll have probably one more question, and then we'll probably hand it back over to Capcom
00:58and let you guys get back to work.
01:00But, you know, when you return to Earth, what's the one thing that, and maybe there's more than one thing,
01:08that you're going to want to explain to people here on Earth your favorite memory of the International Space Station?
01:15I think it's a beautiful view of the Earth from the International Space Station,
01:33so that we recognize that we need to nurture the mother planet Earth.
01:43Awesome. Thank you.
01:46Hey, just I'll say a couple words, and I'll hand it over to Bob.
