Here’s the news from my perch high above Eye4You at the NASA Space Camp.
STS-125 The Hubble Space Telescope Servicing Mission 4: The orbiter Atlantis has a target launch date of May 12th to return to the Hubble Space Telescope for repairs and upgrades to make it ready for another 5 years or more of service.
Mercury 7 50th Anniversary: 50 years ago on April 9, 1959 the first class of astronauts were introduced to the world.
Earth Day is Everyday at NASA: Celebrate Earth Day on April 22 and learn how NASA’s Earth-observing satellites measure climate, temperature and more with this fun Earth Day Activity Booklet.
Science Friday: Every week we meet and listen to the NPR Science Friday broadcast at the Space Camp. This week we’ll learn about the debate over teaching evolution in school, U.S. policy on climate change, brown fat (ewww), predicting earthquakes, space gadgets (cool!!), and flotsametrics. Come early since it’s a 3 day weekend and I’m going camping - I’m taking my telescope far from the city so I can see Saturn … 
I’m thinking of changing my office hours to meet more space enthusiasts. Let me know when *you* think would be a good time!
Ad Astra!!
