Former Pizza Delivery Driver Heads to Space

Australian Astronaut Recounts Humble Beginnings

Tim Peake, the first British astronaut to walk in space, has revealed that he used to deliver pizzas to make ends meet before his career took off.

In an interview with The Guardian, Peake said that he worked as a pizza delivery driver for Domino's while he was studying for his degree in astronautical engineering. "I remember thinking at the time, 'This is never going to happen. I'm never going to be an astronaut,'" he said.

From Pizza Delivery to Space Exploration

However, Peake's determination and hard work paid off. In 2015, he was selected by the European Space Agency to become an astronaut.

In 2016, he spent six months on the International Space Station, where he conducted experiments and performed maintenance tasks. He also became the first British astronaut to walk in space.

Peake's story is an inspiration to anyone who dreams of achieving great things. It shows that with hard work and determination, anything is possible.
