Frank Rubio #HispanicHeritageMonth #LatinxHeritageMonth

NASA Astronaut and U.S. Army Lieutenant Colonel Frank Rubio recently returned from a historic mission, spending 371 days in space aboard the International Space Station. Before coming back, he shared a message celebrating fellow latinos who made their mark on Earth and in space.

Frank Rubio was selected by NASA to join the 2017 Astronaut Candidate Class. He reported for duty in August 2017. Prior to joining NASA, the Florida native graduated from the U.S. Military Academy in 1998 and earned a Doctorate of Medicine from the Uniformed Services University of the Health Sciences in 2010. Prior to attending medical school, he served as a UH-60 Blackhawk helicopter pilot and flew more than 1,100 hours, including more than 600 hours of combat and imminent danger time during deployments to Bosnia, Afghanistan, and Iraq. Dr. Rubio is a board-certified family physician and flight surgeon. At the time of his selection, he was serving in the 10th Special Forces Group (Airborne) at Fort Carson, CO.
