I could definitely see that Jared was not feeling very well, so considering that he started our session by excitedly asking me about whether I'd heard that Scott Kelly had already returned to normal height after his 11 months in space, I decided to indulge his insatiable curiosity regarding the world around him and talk space stuff. We talked about various - historical and practical - aspects of manned space flight, getting useful instruments into orbit (without satellites, for example, there would be no GPS let alone all the other scientific detectors up there), and the implications of exploring our immediate neighborhood in the Universe. Jared also kindly remembered that I was going to go observing at the weekend, so I quizzed him on the difference between 'refraction' and 'reflection' (and therefore got some physics in) when it came to telescopes. I hope Jared feels better soon.
