We all dream of floating in space looking back at earth as an astronaut pioneer.  EPX member Scott Parazynski has done just that.  As the matter of a fact, he has spent nearly 58 days in space and 47 hours walking in space.  Remember the space shuttle?  He was the astronaut improvising at the end of the robotic arm to repair an unplanned issue with a solar array. But he's also summited Everest, is an accomplished volcanaut, has a medical degree from Harvard and even took care of US Senator and legendary astronaut John Glenn.  One of the most accomplished humans in our time.
