Absolute legend: Astronaut Chris Hadfield meets two of his biggest fans

Canadian astronaut and all round super legend Chris Hadfield met two young Irish fans on last night’s Ray D’Arcy Show.

Commander Hadfield became famous on our shores when he posted an amazing photo of Ireland from his last space expedition, and a video from space of himself singing a David Bowie number.

Jovial Hadfield has now written a new childrens book, and admitted that as a young child, he was afraid of the dark but that ironically overcoming his fear of darkness would eventually lead him to space exploration.

Chris is well known for his love for Ireland, and likewise the audience were equally impressed with the softly spoken gentleman.
