Guy Laliberté Is Going To Space

Guy Laliberté is the founder of Cirque du Soleil, the world-famous circus troupe that renewed a whole industry. In conjunction with his non-profit organization, the ONE DROP Foundation, Laliberté is traveling to space in September 2009 to help promote the idea that everyone in the world should have access to clean and drinkable water. He has had to undergo rigorous training to prepare for his space mission, and his 12 days aboard the International Space Station helping with – and trying not to be a hindrance – on the space mission. In this video, WatchMojo.com learns more about Laliberté’s intensive training. For more information, click Here
