When Chris Hadfield went to space on his first space walk his eyes went blind. Tears in space don't go down your cheek because there is no gravity so they form a bubble on your eye so eventually the bubble of water got bigger and bigger until he went blind in both eyes. He did not panic and he called his friend over and he got into the airlock then his friend took out crusty stuff which was the anti fog and Chris Hadfield was not blind anymore.  When Chris was 9 he saw the first moon landing on TV and he then knew he wanted to be an astronaut.  Chris learnt how to fly planes and he was a test pilot. Chris played the guitar and sang in space and sang Space Oddity.  Chris was on a space walk and he was one of the first astronauts on the Canadarm.
