Space shuttle Endeavour's STS-126 flight will feature important repair work and prepare the
International Space Station to house six crew members for long-duration missions. The 15-day flight with its four planned spacewalks will primarily focus on servicing the station's two Solar Alpha Rotary Joints, which allow its solar arrays to track the sun. (The starboard SARJ has had limited use since September 2007.) Endeavour will carry about 32,000 pounds, which will include supplies and equipment necessary to double the crew size from three to six members in spring 2009. The new station cargo includes additional sleeping quarters, a second toilet and a resistance exercise device. The shuttle also will deliver a new crew member and bring back another after more than five months aboard the station. |
NASA's Next Generation

Videos
Several college students, working at NASAs Johnson Space Center, teamed up to help their generation reconnect with NASA by creating entertaining videos that people might not expect from a government agency. Using their own resources and skillz, these young employees created a series of videos that educate and entertain. They were out to show that NASA can communicate with the public with more than just NOVA specials. Not that theres anything wrong with NOVA, I mean NOVA is awesome. Its just that its on TV at Friday nights at 8 PM and I have other things to do. But I digress.
Enjoy the videos and click on the links if youd like to learn more about what NASA is doing, how it impacts your life, or how you can actually get involved. |
NASA's Constellation Program is working to produce the next generation of spacecraft for the United States. These spacecraft, which include the Orion crew vehicle and the Ares launch vehicle, will allow NASA to lift its sights beyond low-earth orbit and to conduct sustained, long-term human and robotic exploration of the moon and other destinations in the solar system.
These videos will give you a behind-the-scenes look at the design and development of these new spacecraft, and you will get the chance to meet the people behind Constellation. For more information on Constellation or any of NASA's other activities, visit us at http://www.nasa.gov. |
