I love space! We should have colonized the moon by now. We are 50 years behind ourselves. And you should be able to go to the moon whenever we want and not for rich people either!



The Endeavor, STS-130 will be set to go up to the International Space Station on February 7! Yay! This mission is to deliver Tranquility Node 3 and Cupola.



Now we only have a couple of years left before we give everything over to Russia! In fact our President Obama has scrapped future take offs. Ok I can understand that we don't have money for the program but also why are relying on other countries. It sucks. We should still be exploring the galaxy. I mean come on. When did we become second class in space. We don't need to scrap the space program. We need to continue to explore.



Anyway for those of you who love to watch the space shuttles go up, February 7!



And in case you don't know you can actually watch the space station with your naked eye! You don't need a telescope. You need to be in a dark place, like out in the middle of the desert. You only have a few seconds to view it as it passes over you! I have seen it a couple of times. You can't see it during the day only at night because it's all lit up. It's so awesome and most people wouldn't even know that it is above them! And don't forget NASA tv is always available.
