Students meet a unique guest at the DOUNB library – NASA astronaut Randolph Breznik

Colonel Randolph Breznik's busy schedule in Dnipro city allowed some time for a visit to the "Window on America" Information and Resource Center.  The Center welcomes all who need help to improve English language skills, to learn more about the United States or wish to share their success story in English.
The first group that greeted the NASA Astronaut was high school students from schools No. 23, 22, 39 of Dnipro city and the town of Tsarychanka. During this incentive visit they had a unique opportunity to ask Colonel Breznik questions, get his autographs or selfies with him.
The second group that greeted Colonel Breznik was the Dnipro rocket builders from the space design bureau "Yuzhnoye". The Ukrainian engineers presented their new projects to the NASA astronaut Randolph Breznyk at   the DOUNB Library’s bigger site - the Patents and Technical Literature Department. At the end of the visit   the US guest had a Q&A session with the audience, a press conference for national TV channels and exchange of gifts. A lot of the event’s participants have received the autographed photos of NASA active astronaut Randy Breznik.
"Window on America" Center Dnipro received a unique surprise gift. Last year we sent some small size souvenirs to be taken to the International Space Station by Colonel Breznik. Among those souvenirs was a 2017 calendar with the WOA Dnipro’s logo.
The Calendar visited the International Space Station and returned back to WOA Dnipro. Colonel R. Breznik issued us a unique “Certificate of authenticity” for the “space travelling” calendar. We were amazed.
Event participants number – 400 people.
