Astronaut Jose Hernandez | Region Rising

Reach for the stars with former NASA astronaut Jose Hernandez and see how his Stockton roots helped launch him into orbit in more ways than one. Back on ground after his 2009 trip to the International Space Station, Hernandez spends his time these days inspiring students to follow their dreams. Jose is the son of an immigrant farm worker and set his sights on space after watching Apollo 17 land on the moon.
