Yay Abigail! She started by launching a rocket, won the ‘Little Scientist’ Space Age Award at the New York Toy Fair:

Commander Chris Hadfield is undoubtedly Abigail's hero, so the news of his joy at watching Abigail's story is sure to have made this six year old fellow Canadian's day!

Abigail 0:47; “He’s my hero, he went up into space and I had to ask him if he saw any meteorites!”



Earlier this year, Lottie became the 'first doll in space'; and British ESA Astronaut Tim Peake tweeted a photo of Stargazer Lottie in the cupola of the International Space Station.
