Astronaut taking piece of the Spurs to space

Spurs will be making history. NASA Astronaut Lt. Col. Andrew Morgan will be taking the Spurs jersey into space. This will be the first time that any Spurs memorabilia leaves planet Earth.
Morgan will be inside the International Space Station living and working for nine months. “I see the work the Spurs do with our wounded warriors and it’s special to me and I know it’s special to the city of San Antonio,” said Morgan. “The Spurs are important to San Antonio and they are important to Brooke Army Medical Center and it’s important to me.”
Morgan and his crew mates are heading to space at 1:28PM Central from Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan
