So he's pretty much borderline genius at minimum with leadership skills and can kill you with his hands in more ways than you'd like to know. Just hope he used that to get some pussy along the way.

I thought all astronauts were pilots? I know they don't all fly the shuttle and have different roles but always assumed they were all pilots.
