Wordless Wednesday: People of NASA Tweetup

Was there any doubt this post would be about the NASA Tweetup at Kennedy Space Center, April 28 & 29, 2011? If you’ve been reading along, you know I’ve been inspired by many NASA people so it’s only appropriate this week’s Wordless Wednesday showcases some of these amazing folks I met and listened to this week.

Disclaimer: This represents a sampling of the cool, awesome NASA folks I met and didn’t capture photos of everyone. I’m hoping see them for Endeavour’s launch.
