In the May 15, 2008, JAVMA News story “Suited for space,” astronaut and veterinarian Dr. Rick Linnehan said he plans on returning to Houston or perhaps NASA headquarters in Washington, D.C., to work on special life sciences and extravehicular activity projects for the Constellation program, which will send astronauts to the moon. An additional note: First, NASA is sending him to Boston for a sabbatical year at Harvard.
