… And she’s up

Astronaut Sunita Williams, who just rode a rocket to the space station, ran with her 15 minutes of fame by supporting the Boston Red Sox:

… before astronaut Sunita “Sunny” Williams boarded the space shuttle Discovery, the Needham native jumped in front of a TV camera and held up a “GO RED SOX” sign, which she planned to take with her on a scheduled six-month trip into space. [Link]

Williams made muscle poses for the camera while her crew mates finished putting on the spacesuits. Before boarding the shuttle, she held up a sign that read, “Go Red Sox. Go Pats. Go for launch.” [Link]
