Some Random Pictures…

Our Pathfinder orbiter broke last night… and the caution tape blocking off a 20-30 ft space around it. My new shoes. Mission control. The orbiter in orbit and on the lunch pad. We have some really cool graphics.

I mentioned how I have to take tests to prove I know the stff I will be teaching to campers (aka, trainees) like the Apollo missions and stuff. Well, with three out of the four tests we are allowed to bring in a 3×5 card with as much handwritten information we can fit on it front and back. This was great because while I may remember funny stories or know the basics of what happened during Apollo 13, I don’t remember all the dates and stuff, and when my brain just blanks out it is a pretty nice thing to have. Here are the pictures of the cards I used for my ‘Early Space History’ an d Shuttle/International Space Station (ISS) tests. I can barely read what I wrote myself.

And here is a picture of me (in my uniform) sitting in the MMU (manned maneuvering unit) model in the Shuttle exhibit in the museum. Also pictured is the star finder and parachute I made.

Thats all I have for now. I’ll post some more later. I need to go to sleep.

Most recent test scores… Shuttle/ISS=92 (counted off for stupid mistakes) Flight Deck/ACCESS= 104. One more big test left!
