Mission Space

In the last month of the space shuttle programme, Kevin Fong is granted extraordinary access to the astronauts and ground crew as they prepare for their final mission. He is in mission control as the astronauts go through their final launch simulation, and he flies with the last shuttle commander as he undertakes his last practice landing flight. Kevin also gains privileged access to the shuttle itself, visiting the lauchpad in the company of the astronaut who will guide the final flight from mission control.

Kevin's journey takes him to the heart of NASA, when after 30 years of shuttle missions, they finally draw the curtain. As well as meeting the final astronauts, Kevin follows the specialist teams of men and women whose job it is to make sure the shuttle and its crew are as safe as they can possibly be. After experiencing the launch and being in mission control during the final mission, Kevin will be there on the tarmac at the Kennedy Space Centre when Atlantis returns from space for the last time, marking the end of an era in manned space flight.

Uniting two former rival nations, Mission to Mir is a unique tour of the Russian Space Station Mir. Filmed in space by American astronauts, the film examines their relationships with Mir's cosmonauts as they live, work and entertain in a zero-gravity environment. Join record-setting space pioneer Shannon W Lucid and her colleagues inside their weightless home against a panorama of spectacular space scenery.

Earth-bound audiences can soar into space and experience life aboard the first long-term space station--Mir. Since March 1995, NASA astronauts have served as crew members aboard the Russian Space Station Mir. The NASA program supporting this endeavor is commonly known as International Space Station Phase 1. MISSION TO MIR is a filmed journal of this historic alliance. Filmed in space by the astronauts, this unprecedented 40-minute, giant-screen tour of Russia's Space Station Mir gives viewers a unique look inside the weightless home in space that has been occupied by international teams of scientists since 1986. The film examines their relationships with Mir's cosmonauts as they live, work and entertain in a zero-gravity environment. Join record-setting space pioneer Shannon W. Lucid with her colleagues inside their weightless home against a panorama of spectacular space scenery. MISSION TO MIR is a presentation of Imax Corporation and Lockheed Martin Corporation in association with The National Air and Space Museum and produced with the cooperation of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA).

Hubble: A Look into the Universe
Hubble is a global superstar and a household name. Now it faces the most dramatic moment in its life, the final visit for repairs and fond farewells from astronauts. The dangerous massive mission to revive the greatest science tool today is under way and once again Hubble and all the brilliant scientists and astronauts responsible for her, will make history. With unprecedented access to NASA’s training facilities, it follows a team of world-class astronauts through training, into space, and back to Earth. The historic mission will visit the Hubble Space Telescope one last time, upgrading its ability to peer even more deeply into the mysteries of the Universe for years to come. So come and join astronauts Mike Massimino, John Grunsfeld and team for a journey of a lifetime.
Mission Critical : Hubble
Follows NASA astronauts as they attempt the most dangerous shuttle mission in history. The seven strong crew of the Space Shuttle Atlantis launched with a goal of repairing and upgrading the Hubble Space Telescope - mankind’s greatest scientific instrument. However, it was no ordinary spaceflight. They went further and higher than any mission since the moon landings and their work was some of the most technically ambitious ever performed in space. In this fascinating programme, take an all-access ride along with NASA’s finest.

Want to build your own satellite and launch it into space? It’s easier than you may think. The first in a series of four books, this do-it-yourself guide shows you the essential steps needed to design a base picosatellite platform—complete with a solar-powered computer-controlled assembly—tough enough to withstand a rocket launch and survive in orbit for three months.Whether you want to conduct scientific experiments, run engineering tests, or present an orbital art project, you’ll select basic components such as an antenna, radio transmitter, solar cells, battery, power bus, processor, sensors, and an extremely small picosatellite chassis. This entertaining series takes you through the entire process—from planning to launch....

Part 1:Hubble Live the Final Mission
As a NASA Astronaut, John Herrington has journeyed into space aboard the Space Shuttle and space walked at the International Space Station. Hubble Live Final Mission he takes the cameras to give you a rare behind the scenes look at the people places and things that have prepared the crew and the Space Shuttle Atlantis for our final voyage to the Hubble Space Telescope. Together we will guide you on a remarkable journey into the heart of NASAs Kennedy Space Center, the home of the Space Shuttle fleet, to the training sessions and simulators at the Johnson Space Center in Houston,

What this 40-minute film does is show how far we have come since the cold-war days of the 50s and 60s that many of us grew up in. Back then the Russians were our "enemies." And, we find out in this film, to them the Americans were their "enemies" who couldn't be trusted. Somewhere in all this a young girl in Oklahoma named Shannon set her sights on becoming one of those space explorers, even though she was told "girls can't do that." But she did, as Dr. Shannon Lucid, with Russians aboard the MIR space station. Who would have ever predicted that?

STS-118 launch. Space Shuttle Endeavour launching from launch pad 39A at the Kennedy Space Center, Florida, USA, on 8th August 2007 at 18:36 local time. STS-118 is the 22nd mission to the International Space Station (ISS) and will continue space station construction by delivering a third starboard truss segment. The ISS is a joint effort by several national space agencies, including NASA. It orbits Earth at an altitude of around 350 kilometres.
