Per aspera ad Astra, Adam. Keep looking to the stars young man. In the meantime, we'll reach out to our friends @NASA & see if they can't help bring your dreams a little closer. pic.twitter.com/DqRZwdziDQ

Tubridy posted on Insta saying: “We’re getting ready for an amazing Late Late Show tomorrow night, it’s a tribute to Sharon Shannon, but also… I think we need to bring back young Adam King.” On last week's show, which was viewed by over 1.5 million people, Adam talked about his love of space and talked about his dream of one day becoming a capsule communicator for NASA. Adam suffers from brittle bones and spends most of his days in a wheelchair, he explained to Ryan that even though he wouldn't be able to be an astronaut in space he could still work for NASA on the ground.
