NASA and U.S. Military Pay Homage to Jeter

A creative hat tip.

Derek Jeter Day extended far beyond Yankee Stadium on Sunday. During Jeter's ceremony a trio of NASA astronauts tipped their caps to the Captain from 200 miles above earth, while a group of U.S. Military members also showed their appreciation. It's clear that Jeter's impact truly transcends baseball.

The astronauts and Military members were just some of the many notable people to honor Jeter during Sunday's ceremony.
