| Description |
** SHUTTLE UPDATE – KSC: As space shuttle Discovery waits at launch pad 39A for its liftoff from the Kennedy Space Center, the STS-131 crew continues to ready itself for its upcoming mission to the International Space Station. Commander Alan Poindexter and his international team of astronauts will deliver science racks for use in the station's laboratories. ... Mission specialists Rick Mastracchio and Clay Anderson are scheduled to perform three, six-and-one-half-hour spacewalks to replace, retrieve and switch out various elements outside the orbiting complex. For Mastracchio, this'll be his third shuttle mission and second series of spacewalks. ... Rounding out the STS-131 crew is pilot Jim Dutton, and Mission Specialists Dorothy Metcalf-Lindenburger, Stephanie Wilson and Naoko Yamazaki of the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency. Discovery's launch is targeted for the morning of April 5. ** HUBBLE 3-D – HQ: The final space shuttle mission to repair and upgrade the Hubble Space Telescope is the subject of a new IMAX film. ''Hubble 3-D'' was premiered during a special event held at the National Air and Space Museum in Washington. The movie features the NASA astronauts from STS-125 who serviced Hubble in May 2009, an IMAX 3D camera mounted in space shuttle Atlantis' payload bay filmed their progress. ** TECH TREK -- DFRC: About 25 seventh-grade girls from area middle schools got up close and personal with unique aircraft and high technology when they participated in a "Tech Trek" tour of the Dryden Flight Research Center. The Tech Trek, to develop interest and excitement about math and science and self-confidence among middle-school girls, included tours of Dryden's main aircraft hangar and several specialized research and support aircraft, including the modified Boeing 747 Shuttle Carrier Aircraft and the Global Hawk and Ikhana unmanned science aircraft. **GODDARD SYMPOSIUM - GSFC: The 48th Robert H. Goddard Memorial space symposium was held in Greenbelt, Maryland, home to the NASA center bearing the name of America's pioneering rocketeer. Sponsored by the American Astronautical Society, the three-day event drew leaders from NASA, the aerospace industry and academia, and Washington policy-makers to discuss the major issues facing space exploration. Among other topics, panel discussions and presentations addressed Commercial Space Missions, Extreme Space Weather, Climate Change, and Space Science and the future of Human Space Flight. ** WOMEN'S HISTORY MONTH PROFILE: Madhulika Guhathakurta, Heliophysicist: In March 2006, heliophysicist Lika Guhathakurta was part of a NASA-led science expedition to Libya to witness a total solar eclipse. This international expedition was an unprecedented collaboration with Libyan scientists and researchers from across the globe. It was a project befitting a woman compelled to earn advanced degrees in astrophysics from American universities by a life-long fascination with the sky that began as a child in her native India. |
