Roll Tide and full throttle!
An incredible day in Tuscaloosa with @SecRollins, from signing a new agreement between @NASA and @USDA and meeting with students at @UofAlabama to flying over a packed Bryant-Denny Stadium ahead of Alabama vs. Texas A&M.
The same spirit that takes us into the skies will take us back to the Moon and inspire the next generation to take us even farther.
