MEDIA ADVISORY: M11-169 MISSISSIPPI AND LOUISIANA STUDENTS TO CALL SPACE STATION ASTRONAUTS

WASHINGTON -- Students gathered at NASA's John C. Stennis Space Center in Mississippi will place a long distance call to astronauts aboard the International Space Station at 1:35 p.m. EDT on Thursday, Aug. 18. Mississippi and Louisiana students in kindergarten through twelfth grade will ask Expedition 28 Flight Engineers Ron Garan, Mike Fossum and Satoshi Furukawa questions related to mass and weight. The experience is designed to enhance the students' understanding of scientific principles, physics and space. Stennis' education office is hosting the call, which will include a video link with the three astronauts and will be broadcast live on NASA Television.
