Garron Noone had a very funny ‘warning’ ahead of Ireland’s first space traveller making her flight
In 2026, aeronautical engineer and bioastronautics researcher Dr. Norah Patten will be on board a Virgin Galactic research flight, making her the first Irish person in space.

The news very much excited singer and comedian Garron Noone, who is from Dr. Patten’s home county of Mayo. He had a few thoughts to share.

“Now, listen up, Space. I’ve got a warning for you. When the Irish go somewhere, we fuckin’ well go there. There’s gonna be an Irish pub on every star in the sky by the end of the decade.”
We’d never bet against Garron – or the spread of Irish pubs. Here’s TikTok’s verdict.
I believe this wholeheartedly! no matter which country I visit there’s always an Irish pub.

Of course, it got a resounding, if virtual, cheer there too.

This seems inevitable.
Cue a load of American astronauts saying "but I'm a quarter Irish on muh gran'pappy's side an' ah went to the space decades ago!".

In fact, there has already been an Irish person in space – slightly.
