It must be quite surreal for William to be actually experiencing real-life space travel as opposed to being on a TV/Movie set as Captain of the Enterprise.

I hope he has as much fun though.

I wasn't able to watch the launch, but I watched after they touched down and heard some of his comments. Who would have thought he'd live to 90 and go into space? Maybe Uhura next?
