Chris Hadfield

He is one of Canada's most beloved modern role models. Known for his warm and wholesome personality, he famously used his time commanding the International Space Station to create engaging videos to inspire people on Earth. His cover of David Bowie's "Space Oddity" became a global viral video that made space flight feel human and accessible.

He is the first Canadian to command the ISS and to complete a space walk operation and has spent 168 days, 18 hours, and 16 minutes in space.
