We sit down with CAPT Christopher Cassidy ’93, USN (Ret.), whose remarkable career has taken him from the U.S. Naval Academy to Navy SEAL teams, NASA, and ultimately the command of the International Space Station (ISS). Cassidy reflects on the experiences, challenges, and lessons that shaped his journey, sharing stories from spaceflight, military service, and leadership in some of the most demanding environments imaginable. From launching into orbit to living and working hundreds of miles above Earth, this conversation offers a fascinating look at exploration, resilience, and the enduring impact of a Naval Academy education. Join us for an inspiring discussion with one of the Academy’s most accomplished graduates as we continue our Voices from Orbit series celebrating USNA alumni who have ventured beyond our planet.
