Readers should check the CBS News "Space Place" web site in the weeks before a launch to download the latest edition: http://www.cbsnews.com/network/news/space/current.html DATE RELEASE NOTES 08/03/08 Initial STS-125 release 04/11/09 Updating to reflect may 12 launch; revised flight plan 04/15/09 Adding EVA breakdown; walkthrough 04/23/09 Updating for 5/11 launch target date 04/30/09 Adding STS-400 details from FRR briefing 05/04/09 Adding trajectory data; abort boundaries; STS-400 launch windows Introduction This document is an outgrowth of my original UPI Space Reporter's Handbook, prepared prior to STS-26 for United Press International and updated for several flights thereafter due to popular demand. The current version is prepared for CBS News. As with the original, the goal here is to provide useful information on U.S. and Russian space flights so reporters and producers will not be forced to rely on government or industry public affairs officers at times when it might be difficult to get timely responses. All of these data are available elsewhere, of course, but not necessarily in one place.

    US astronaut returns to Earth after longest mission by woman 6 February 2020, by Christopher Rickleton "Welcome back to Earth, @Astro_Christina, and congratulations on breaking the female record for the longest stay in space! You're inspiring young women and making the USA proud!" he tweeted. Local Kazakhs on horseback were among those to witness the capsule landing in the snow-covered steppe as support crews gathered around the three astronauts, NASA commentator Rob Navias said. "I've never seen this," Navias exclaimed, reporting that the men stopped to chat with engineering personnel. Koch, a 41-year-old Michigan-born engineer, on NASA astronaut Christina Koch landed on the Kazakh December 28 beat the previous record for a single stepe after 328 days in space spaceflight by a woman of 289 days, set by NASA veteran Peggy Whitson in 2016-17. Koch called three-time flyer Whitson, now 60, "a NASA's Christina Koch returned to Earth safely on heroine of mine" and a "mentor" in the space Thursday after shattering the spaceflight record for programme after she surpassed the record. female astronauts with a stay of almost 11 months aboard the International Space Station. She spoke of her desire to "inspire the next generation of explorers." Koch touched down at 0912 GMT on the Kazakh steppe after 328 days in space, along with Luca Koch also made history as one half of the first-ever Parmitano of the European Space Agency and all-woman spacewalk along with NASA counterpart Alexander Skvortsov of the Russian space agency.

    SPACE RELATED RESEARCH has been part of UCF’s DNA since day one. Today it boasts a team of more than 20 experts focused on exploring our solar system and helping use its resources to better our world. Our experts have decades of experience working with NASA and commercial space companies such as Space X, Blue Origin and Virgin Galactic. UCF is also home to centers and institutes recognized for their excellence in space-related research. Our researchers and students are developing ways to mine asteroids, create new rocket fuels, and mitigate the effects of weightlessness on the human body and mind. We even count two astronauts among our graduates - Fernando Caldeiro and Nicole Stott. When it comes to space, UCF is a powerhouse. National Impact Jobs 1 UCF’s researchers are part of major missions 2 UCF is No. 1 for placing graduates in aerospace-related jobs.
