Charles Simonyi continues to post blogs, podcasts, videos and answers to questions about his adventure as the fifth private passenger to the International Space Station earlier this month. Such a fantastic learning tool for students of all ages.

Thanks, Charles, for taking the time to share your adventure with us. You're a true venture educator. Many of us look forward to learning what we may never know first-hand from your future postings and your next adventure.

And thanks, Neek Talk for pointing to Charles in Space.

While at Microsoft, Simonyi led teams that developed Microsoft Word, Microsoft Excel, and other successful software applications.
