brighten it everywhere." - Isaac Asimov
Expedition
Six NASA ISS Science Officer Don Pettit used his time while living
aboard the International Space Station to shed the light of science
on a variety of subjects. Saturdays aboard the station are usually
free time for crewmembers, who often take the opportunity to do
some housecleaning and then look out the window, read a book or
write a letter.
Pettit spent
some of his Saturday mornings conducting his own series of scientific
experiments, and he videotaped some of them and downlinked them
to the Mission Control Center in Houston, Texas. He also logged
the results of some experiments and penned his personal musings,
which can be found in his Space Chronicles.
