00:00 Greetings from the International Space Station. We the members of Expedition 68
00:04 would like to wish you and your loved ones a Happy Thanksgiving and also share
00:08 with you why Thanksgiving is special to us here in space. Here we are on board
00:14 International Space Station, our home away from home. Today I would like to
00:18 express my sincere gratitude to the hundreds and thousands of people who
00:23 support the Human Space Program. And to our family and friends and all those
00:30 following along the mission, we are thankful that you're able to be a part
00:34 of Expedition 68 with us. It is the love of friends and family that help make
00:40 dreams come true. Up here we're on Greenwich Mean Time, which means that for
00:47 half of the planet we live in the future. So much so that we'll be celebrating
00:51 Thanksgiving on Tuesday this year and working a bit on Thursday, but I think
00:55 we'll still have some time to catch some football and eat some great Thanksgiving
01:00 fare.
01:02 Happy Thanksgiving!
