Rock band Marillion have a long-standing interest in science and exploration. In particular, guitarist Steve Rothery is fascinated by the images of Earth as seen from the International Space Station. He wrote a piece of music called #39;Space #39; some time ago and thought it would make a great accompaniment to video footage taken by astronauts on the Station. Earlier this year, Marillion had sent a compilation of their songs up to the Space Station for ESA astronaut Andr Kuipers and the Expedition 30/31 crew.From:Kowch737Views:28 5ratingsTime:02:11More inScience Technology

The Universe - s03e01 - Deep Space Disasters
In space travel there is a saying that the first 50 miles and the last 50 miles are the most dangerous. Explore the controlled explosion of launch, the fiery crucible of reentry and everything in between. See how a single spark inside a spacecraft or a micrometeoroid less than an inch wide hitting a space station can turn a routine mission into a lethal nightmare. As the missions become longer, venturing to Mars and beyond, the potential disasters will only become bigger. What would happen if a spacecraft ventured too close to a black hole or was hit by a gamma ray burst? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Series Playlist: http://www.youtube.comFrom:AllFreeingEyeViews:0 0ratingsTime:44:31More inEducation

STS-134 Endeavour May 16 2011
Launch of STS-134 STS-134 (ISS assembly flight ULF6) was the penultimate mission of NASA #39;s Space Shuttle program. The mission marked the 25th and last spaceflight of Space Shuttle Endeavour.[8] This flight delivered the Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer and an ExPRESS Logistics Carrier to the International Space Station. Mark Kelly served as the mission commander. STS-134 was expected to be the final space shuttle mission if STS-135 did not receive funding from Congress; however, in February 2011, NASA stated that STS-135 would fly "regardless" of the funding situation. The Launch On Need mission, a contingency mission to rescue a stranded STS-134 crew, would have been the STS-135 flight (formerly STS-335), flown by Atlantis. Changes in the design of the main payload, AMS-02, as well as delays to STS-133, led to delays in the mission. The first launch attempt on 29 April 2011 was scrubbed at 12:20 pm by launch managers due to problems with two heaters on one of the orbiter #39;s auxiliary power units (APU). Endeavour launched successfully at 08:56:28 EDT (12:56:28 UTC) on 16 May 2011, and landed for the final time on 1 June 2011.From:wingman011111Views:0 0ratingsTime:02:26More inScience Technology
