NASA astronaut John Herrington, a member of the Chickasaw Nation, visited a Bureau of Indian Affairs school on the Navajo Nation.
Herrington was a member of the Space Shuttle Endeavour mission to the International Space Station. He told elementary students at the To'hajiilee Community School that being in space made him feel "like you feel when you've just eaten and you're kind of full."
A kindergartener asked what he ate in space. "Chicken, barbecued beef, tortillas," replied Herington.
