OMG This is so awesome!!!
Tuesday, September 2nd, 2008 07:44 pmI've booked a place on this event next week....
I AM GOING TO MEET REAL SPACE SHUTTLE ASTRONAUTS!!!!!!!
I found a new website, NASA Spaceflight.com last week, and was looking through the forum - which has separate sections for each of the three operational orbiters - and there was a thread in the Discovery section about the STS-124 crew visiting England. So I followed the links, and got to an event in Bradford - next week!
The event is free, which surprised me - but there's several learned parties involved, including an organisation which promotes education on space-related topics, and Yorkshire Forward. So maybe it's not that surprising. Now I have to organise my train tickets - it's a 3-4 hour journey each way, so it's good that the event starts at lunchtime :D
I'm so excited! I hope I'll have something good to share after the event.
