We are proud to announce that NASA Astronaut Dr. Kjell Lindgren is a Special Guest of Sasquan!
Dr. Lindgren will be participating in Sasquan while serving as a flight engineer on the International Space Station during NASA Expeditions 44 and 45. Yes, for the first time in Worldcon history, we will be in direct communication with a member of our community - out of this world!
[Full announcement here.]

As one of the Usual Suspects where Worldcon space programming is concerned, I welcome Dr. Lindgren to the conversation. May he find his participation in our 76-year-long tradition as rewarding as we do!
