Questions for ISS Astronaut Yi Soyeon?

Less than a year ago, astronaut Soyeon Yi became the first Korean to travel to space when she blasted off on a Soyuz rocket for a scientific mission on the International Space Station. This Sunday, April 5th, we'll be hosting a Q&A session with Yi at the New York Hall of Science - and subsequently producing the event as a podcast.

If you have any questions for Yi Soyeon - about her training, her time on the ISS, or the experiments she ran while there - please send them our way: We'll pick the best ones, ask her, and get you the answers when the podcast goes up.

You can post your questions here, or e-mail them to daniel.ny@koreasociety.org, anytime before this Sunday.

Thanks for the help!

Questions for ISS Astronaut Yi Soyeon

Given how advanced Korea is in terms of electronics and technology, would you like to see a bigger part played in space exploration for Korea - maybe in robotics? Is there much interest within the general population?
