This 6-Year-Old Got To Dress As Her Hero, Astronaut Chris Hadfield, For Halloween

    The tiniest astronaut.

    This is Temperance, better known as Tempie. She's six, loves space, science, and dinosaurs, and spent Halloween as her hero, Canadian astronaut Chris Hadfield.

    Please just look at how perfect this is.

    She even had a lil' ukulele to complete the look.

    That's when she spent hours watching a video of Hadfield wringing out a wet washcloth in zero gravity.

    She decided over the summer she wanted to be Hadfield for Halloween.

    "She was so excited, this is all she’s been talking about for literally the last six months," said Figueiredo.

    Her mom used a NASA costume and added some Canadian patches and topped it all off with a hat and mustache.

    But the best part is that Hadfield himself retweeted the photos.

    The photos are now going viral, thanks to the Hadfield bump. And Tempie couldn't be happier.

    And she wasn't the only one who went as Hadfield for Halloween.

    @adriannap @Cmdr_Hadfield My niece too...She couldn't grow a 'stache though 😢

    Because what could be cooler than being Canada's coolest astronaut?

    Houston, we're ready for candy. Being an astronaut is serious business. #notimetosmile @Cmdr_Hadfield

    Happy Halloween, tiny dreamers.

    why be just any old astronaut for Halloween when you can be @Cmdr_Hadfield?
