Randy Bresnik je astronavt slovenskih korenin. V vesolju je preživel skoraj 150 dni; med prvo misijo se mu je rodila hčerka, tako da je njeno rojstvo zamudil, druga misija, ki je trajala pet mesecev, pa mu je dala vpogled v to, kakšno je življenje v vesolju. Kako se prhajo, kako trenirajo mišice, kako gredo na stranišče, kaj je bilo najboljše, kar je jedel v vesolju, kaj najslabše in ali v vesolju boli križ?
Randy Bresnik was born into a family that already had an aviation legacy. His father was a U.S. Army Air Cavalry helicopter pilot in Vietnam and his grandfather spent five years as the official photographer for Amelia Earhart. But Bresnik would chart his own path, attending The Citadel as a Navy ROTC student and ultimately choosing the U.S. Marine Corps. He has flown 86 different types of planes but his favorite is the F/A-18.In this edition of "Veterans Chronicles," Bresnik takes us through his journey as a pilot, his early deployments, his memories of 9/11, and he goes into great detail about his close air support missions in the opening weeks of the Iraq War. He also details his pursuit of becoming a NASA astronaut, training for missions, and the family drama that played out on earth while he performed his first mission. Finally, Bresnik explains what a spacewalk is like and why he is excited about what lies ahead for the U.S. space program
Randy Bresnik is a Father, Husband, Marine, and Astronaut. He trained in Top Gun school, flew combat missions overseas, and has been to space twice, complementing various spacewalks and missions.

Want to know what it’s like in outer space? Your best bet is under the sea. Life on a deep-space mission may be a lot like life in a deep-sea submersible, and the extreme environments found on the sea floor may give us clues as to where to look for life on other planets. In this episode, Emily, Matt, and Nick talk deep-sea diving, marine microbes, prog rock, and Emily’s favorite – ocean worlds. Guests include oceanographer and microbiologist Dr. Julie Huber of the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution and NASA astronaut Randy Bresnik.
I highly suggest you give this one a watch on YouTUbe when you get a chance. Does NASA Shoot RAW? An Interview with ASTRONAUT Randy Bresnik SPACE It all started with a question, "do astronauts on the space station shoot RAW?". I figured why not call NASA and find out. While on the call I thought it would be a good idea to ask if I could interview an astronaut on the actual international space station. This time around we didn't get to interview someone on the station but we did get to interview Randy Bresnik who arrived back to earth only three days prior to our interview. Randy's Instagram https://www.instagram.com/astrokomrade/?hl=en We talked a lot about photography and the issues you may face in space as a human and a photographer. I was amazed by the fact that I was talking to a real life SPACEMAN and get to share the whole thing with you. I look forward to bringing you even more interviews as we venture into 2018. It is my goal to do an interview with someone in SPACE in the new year. I'm planning on seeing a SpaceX launch as well.
