Virgin Galactic’s Astronaut Christopher Huie on his Journey into Space

Can you imagine what it feels like looking down at the earth from space? Astronaut 006, Christopher Huie, can certainly tell you. His recent voyage into space as part of the Unity 25 mission aboard @VirginGalactic VSS Unity on May 25, 2023 was indeed the journey of a lifetime. The son of Jamaican immigrants, Huie proudly, and literally, wore his Jamaican heritage on his sleeve as he and fellow astronauts took off for his first flight into space. American-born and bred, he takes his Jamaican-ness seriously. In fact, he credits his Jamaican upbringing for his work ethics and outlook on life.
