Houston
Lone Star hub
Houston is a major city in southeastern Texas, the fourth most populous in the United States and home to NASA's Johnson Space Center.
The phrase Houston, we have a problem comes from the 1970 Apollo 13 mission and now signals any unexpected difficulty.
Sam Houston was the Texas revolutionary leader for whom the city was named.
