Meet the Metro Detroit astronaut heading to the International Space Station

We talked to astronaut Drew Feustel!

On Wednesday, three astronauts will lift off from Russia to begin a five-month tour of duty aboard the International Space Station.  

This is a special launch for all of us here because one of those astronauts is from Metro Detroit, and he’s even going to give us a shout out on Twitter when he flies over Michigan!  

We talked to astronaut Drew Feustel via satellite from Russia as he prepared for the launch -- watch above.
