William Shatner’s brief Twitter exchange with Astronaut Chris Hadfield

This is so many levels of awesome!

William Shatner, the actor who portrayed Captain James T. Kirk on the first Star Trek series, had a brief Twitter chat with astronaut Chris Hadfield, who is currently on board the International Space Station.

The fact that Chris Hadfield called him “captain” made it so much awesome! It’s just too bad Shatner didn’t answer back with something similar, but it’s still awesome.
