Let's make this birthday one to remember.

65 years old (Born on August 15, 1959)

Happy Birthday, Scott! You've piloted shuttles and commanded missions—all while making repairs to the Hubble Telescope look easier than assembling IKEA furniture. Thank you for ensuring that astronomers can continue arguing over Pluto’s planetary status with crystal clear clarity.

May your celebrations defy gravity today—and much like the incredible moments spent floating among stars—stay timelessly stellar. Here's hoping your day is as epic as commanding humanity's boldest telescope maintenance mission or showing off those impressive moves behind a shuttle cockpit control panel!

Cheers to another extraordinary trip around our favorite star. Keep boldly going, Commander Altman—we salute you!
