    Ohio, it’s a statistical fact.

    More people from Ohio have become astronauts than any other state/territory in the world

    Because when youre an Astronaut you can get as far away from Ohio as humanely possible. No one else has that kind of motivation to complete the rigorous training.

    Even before astronauts were a thing. Ohio inspired two men to invent airplanes, because they had already traveled to the East Coast by then, and couldn’t run across the ocean to get further from Ohio. They had to adapt and learn to fly
