Hey @homedepot, I regularly shop at your stores but your website needs some 'home' improvements. I often find myself unable to purchase items you are selling, and switching over to Amazon. Lost opportunities there.

Before I left NASA the first ascent/entry suit for Orion was being fitted for me. Luckily the engineer building it (Dustin) is the same size so now its his. Yes, that orange suit fits me.

#Artemis1 I rode 2 of the 4 engines to orbit, several segments of the solids and even the Orion main engine that will provide thrust in lunar orbit. I might as well be in the cockpit.

Hey @Toyota I've done many difficult things. I've launched on 3 Shuttles and a Russian Soyuz, I've done 9 spacewalks and lived in space for 6 months. My 2006 Tundra was with me the whole way. But I cant find a 2022 Platinum Tundra Hybrid! Is there any way to get some help?.
