| Description |
* KSC: With less than one month away from their targeted launch date, the six members of the shuttle Endeavour crew are busily preparing for their STS-130 mission to the International Space Station. They continue to review their flight equipment and rendezvous procedures while technicians on Launch Pad 39A at the Kennedy Space Center complete prelaunch propellant servicing. * The STS-129 crew was in Washington for a busy round of activities. Kicking things off was a visit to NASA Headquarters where the six astronauts recounted their November trip to the International Space Station aboard space shuttle Atlantis. * NASA is testing segments of the primary mirror that will help the James Webb Space Telescope seek out star-forming planetary systems that connect the Big Bang with our own Milky Way galaxy. Over a period of five days, six of the 18 Webb telescope mirror segments will be chilled to minus 414 degrees Fahrenheit to ensure they can withstand the rigors of extreme space. * International Space Station Commander Jeff Williams is helping correspondent Steve Hartman with his weekly series of special segments on the ''CBS Evening News'' called, ''Everyone in the World Has a Story.'' * With waters warming up again, scores of endangered green and loggerhead sea turtles rescued from the Kennedy Space Center should soon be heading back home to Mosquito Lagoon or the Indian River. Kennedy employees teamed up with the Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission to rescue the turtles from uncharacteristically cold waters during early January's cold snap. |

| Description |
* With skies overcast skies, the next space shuttle crew set down their T-38s at the Kennedy Space Center, eager to begin their launch dress rehearsal, or Terminal Countdown Demonstration test. The crew will fly aboard space shuttle Endeavour bringing the Tranquility node and its cupola for installation on the International Space Station. The STS-130 mission is scheduled to liftoff from the Kennedy Space Center on Sunday, February 7, at 4:39 a.m. Eastern. * The scheduled launch of NASA's new Solar Dynamics Observatory, or SDO, is drawing near. Its prelaunch briefing, conducted at NASA headquarters in Washington and the Kennedy Space Center, gave media a look at SDO's unprecedented mission to study the sun and its dynamic behavior. * JSC: The next International Space Station crew briefed reporters on their upcoming mission. NASA astronaut Tracy Caldwell Dyson was joined by Russian cosmonauts Alexander Skyorsov and Mikhail Kornlenko to discuss their upcoming Expedition 23 mission. * Members of the STS-129 crew continued their whirlwind tour of NASA centers. Five members of the space shuttle Atlantis crew thanked employees at the Stennis Space Center for their part in a safe STS-129 mission to the International Space Station in November. * The Mars Exploration Rover Opportunity this week celebrates six years of exploration and research on the surface of the red planet. * The most powerful camera aboard the NASA spacecraft orbiting Mars will soon be taking photo suggestions from the public. |

| Description |
The crew of STS-131 returned home to Houston following their fifteen days in space aboard shuttle Discovery. * The first images are in from NASA's Solar Dynamics Observatory, or SDO, and scientists who study the sun say they are a stunning treasure trove of data about Earth's star. * NASA helped celebrate Earth Day's fortieth anniversary with nine consecutive days of activities and public exhibits on the National Mall in Washington. * Robonaut 2, or R2, as it, or he, is also known, is scheduled to become the first human-like robot to take up permanent residence on the International Space Station. * Hundreds of students from middle schools, high schools, and colleges representing 20 states were in northern Alabama for the annual Space Launch Initiative, or LaunchFest. * The STS-130 crew paid a visit to NASA Headquarters where they played highlights of their February mission to the International Space Station for employees and guests. The six-astronaut crew of space shuttle Endeavour was commanded by George Zamka, Terry Virts was the pilot, Mission Specialists were Nicholas Patrick, Bob Behnken, Steve Robinson and Kay Hire. * On April 24, 1990, the Hubble Space Telescope launched aboard Space Shuttle Discovery from the Kennedy Space Center in Florida. Since then, the observatory orbiting 350 miles above Earth has produced hundreds of thousands of unprecedented images of different corners of the universe. |
