"My wife played a huge part in helping me to persevere. I was rejected from NASA's astronaut program eleven times. People get rejected twice, on average, before they're picked.

The sixth year that NASA rejected me, I crumpled up the rejection letter and threw it on the bedroom floor. I was going to quit trying, but she talked me out of it.

'Let NASA be the one to disqualify you, don't disqualify yourself,' she told me.

I was rejected eleven times. It wasn't until the twelfth time that I was selected. I was 41 when I became an astronaut. The average age of new astronauts is 34."
