A very very important message from me...

The 14th International Space Station crew has been announced:

"NASA astronauts Michael Lopez-Alegria and Sunita Williams and Russian cosmonaut Mikhail Tyurin have been named as the 14th crew of the International Space Station. Expedition 14 is scheduled to begin this fall."

What's the signifigance of this, Guy, you may ask: Let me tell you.

Since the Columbia disaster, it was a mandate that as long as the shuttle was grounded there would be only two people stationed aboard the ISS...

You'll note there will be three in the next flight...

NASA has faith that Return to Flight really will this time. :)

--STS 121 (Discovery OV-103) Mission 2 in Return to Flight. Launch pad: 39B, Kennedy Space Center, Florida. Mission: Assembly, ISS ULF1.1 Launch Date: 1948 GMT (3:48 p.m. EDT) July 1, 2006.
