2008 Spaceport News Summary
2008 Spaceport News Summary The 2008 Spaceport News used the above banner for the year. Introduction The first issue of the Spaceport News was December 13, 1962. The 1963, 1964 and 1965 Spaceport News were issued weekly. The Spaceport News was issued every two weeks, starting July 7, 1966, until the last issue on February 24, 2014. Spaceport Magazine, a monthly issue, superseded the Spaceport News in April 2014, until the final issue, Jan./Feb. 2020. The two 1962 Spaceport News issues and the issues from 1996 until the final Spaceport Magazine issue, are available for viewing at this website. The Spaceport News issues from 1963 through 1995 are currently not available online. In this Summary, black font is original Spaceport News text, blue font is something I added or someone else/some other source provided, and purple font is a hot link. All links were working at the time I completed this Spaceport News Summary. The Spaceport News writer is acknowledged, if noted in the Spaceport News article. Followup From the 2007 Spaceport News Summary The followng is in the December 14, 2007, issue of the Spaceport News. Page 1 There is an article in the 2007 Spaceport News Summary about External Tank repairs to ET-124, flown on STS-117, after it was damaged by hail. Below is a photo in the VAB, showing the extent of some of the damage. A lot of scaffolding had to be installed, some of which is in visible in the photo.

The Space4Women project has brought together a network of inspirational space leaders worldwide, committed to making the sector more inclusive by supporting young people in pursuing their ambitions in the space industry. At UNOOSA, we are particularly proud of this project as it provides resources and inspiration to both young women and men, in order to envision and build a different, more inclusive space sector and society for the future.” SIMONETTA DI PIPPO, “DIRECTOR, UNITED NATIONS OFFICE FOR OUTER SPACE AFFAIRS 1 Why do we need Space4Women? Women represent only 35 per cent of all students enrolled in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM)-related higher education, and only 20–22 per cent of the workforce in the space industry.

(You will need a set of kitchen scales for this activity.) To find out more about life as an astronaut go to: https://www.rubytuesdaybooks.com/product/astronaut-life-as-a-scientist-and- engineer-in-space/ © Ruby Tuesday Books 2021 Just Another Day at Work The countdown is over. A deafening roar bursts from the base of the Soyuz-FG rocket. As people around the world hold their breath, the rocket soars into the sky on a column of flame. Blasting away from Earth are Timothy Kopra, Yuri Malenchenko and Tim Peake. Just three scientists and engineers on their way to work! In a few hours, the men will reach their destination – the International Space Station (ISS). Their training has been long and hard. But it will all be worth it to have the chance to live and work high above Earth in the most extreme laboratory ever built!

The completion of the ISS on-orbit assembly allows for a focus on the multifaceted purpose of the ISS, one of scientific research, technology development, exploration and education. As a National Laboratory, the ISS will provide opportunities beyond NASA to academia, commercial entities and other government agencies to pursue their research and development needs in science, technology development and education. With everyone working together, we look forward to extending human presence beyond and improving life here on Earth. This calendar is designed to show all facets of the ISS using displays of astounding imagery and providing significant historical events with the hope of inspiring the next generation. NASA is appreciative of the commitment that America’s educators demonstrate each and every day as they instruct and shape the young students who will be tomorrow’s explorers and leaders. I hope you enjoy the calendar and are encouraged to learn new and exciting aspects about NASA and the ISS throughout the year. Regards, MICHAEL T.
