      I felt so bad for him when he came back and wanted to share this emotional moment with Jeff Bezos but Bezos was only interested in popping champagne and posing for his supposed accomplishment.

      I love this guy. Ever since he starred as the lead role in Miss Congeniality

      I’ve read a couple of overview effect responses from NASA astronauts and invariably they tend to be uniformly upbeat as if their media training has kicked in. This was both dark and yet still uplifting but because it started so dark it made what he said that much more profound.

      I get the impression that he is a significantly flawed man but that doesn’t take away from what he has said here.

      Shatner’s piece is beautiful. There’s quite a bit I’m not fond of with some of his choices in life but he is still profoundly human and how this trip affected him is proof of that. And his words definitely ring beautifully about what it means to be out there even if it is surprisingly dark.

      Tiny nitpick though, the title of the article says he went to orbit. No he didn’t. Above the Karman line and into space sure. But not orbit.

      I mean, not everybody who goes to space is going to see it with some child-like wonder that we often get from astronauts; not because they have media training; but because they go to space with a completely different perspective to begin with.

      Shatner, for all his flaws, is a pretty typical human being. He hasn’t spent his life studying space or earth sciences.

      No doubt the overview effect will impact people differently the more types of people that go to space.
