On Monday, former US astronaut Andrew “Drew” Feustel was a special guest at Prague’s Planetarium as part of Czech Space Week. Feustel, whose wife Indira Feustel has Czech roots, famously took a Krtek (Little Mole) toy with him on two space flights, and enjoys close ties with this country. Both Drew and Indira Feustel were interviewed live on stage at the Planetarium in Prague by Czech Radio host Libor Bouček.
