Extractions: Roberta Bondar made Canada very proud when, in January of 1992, she became the first Canadian woman to go into space. But for Roberta Bondar, the dream of going to space began when she was only a child in Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario looking up at the sky. She always found space fascinating, and she believes this fascination led her towards a career as an astronaut. The formal education that eventually took her into space began in high school with her science and mathematics courses. After high school, Roberta Bondar went to the University of Guelph for a degree in zoology and biology. She graduated from the University of Guelph in 1968 and chose to continue her education at the University of Western Ontario for a Master's Degree. Next, she took her Ph.D. at the University of Toronto. After these six years of studying, Roberta Bondar went to medical school at McMaster University in Hamilton, Ontario. There she became a doctor and her specialty was neurology, the study of the brain. As well as all of her training in science, Roberta Bondar is also a pilot. In fact, she could pilot an airplane before she could even drive a car. Roberta Bondar had a specific interest in neurology, which was neuro-ophthalmology. This is the study of how the eye works, and how the eyes work with the brain to produce vision. After her internship at Toronto General Hospital, she took more training in neurology at the University of Western Ontario, and specific training in neuro-ophthalmology in Boston and in Toronto.

Extractions: Kathy Banks, a professor of civil engineering at Purdue University, views a "bio-trickle system" that is part of her work with NASA to develop advanced life support technologies for self-sustaining space colonies. Banks is designing a single system to treat both air and water, which has never been done before. Her system is called BREATHe, for bio-regenerative exhaust air treatment for health. The system will purify both water and air by using microbes. (Purdue News Service Photo by David Umberger) by Emil Venere The National Aeronautics and Space Administration announced today (Tuesday, 3/12) that Purdue University will head a center to develop "advanced life support" technologies for sustaining human colonies on Mars and elsewhere in space. The center's director, Cary Mitchell, said Purdue will help design a self-sustaining environment for future space colonies. Residents will grow their own crops and live inside fully enclosed habitats in which all wastes are constantly being recycled and purified. Plants will provide foods and oxygen for humans, microbes will be used to break down wastes, and other technologies will be needed to remove impurities from the air and water. "There will be a closed-loop synergy, meaning the wastes of one system are taken in, used and processed by another system," said Mitchell, a professor of horticulture at Purdue.

Extractions: by Thomas Farrell I am starting to feel out of the loop, not having received the threads concerning mmm toys we would like to see or "what if matt were real". Anyway, I guess it is time for more bio about myself and mmm memories. My emailings have been generally to other list participants rather than to the entire list, and as I don't want to be an unknown quantity, here goes: I am 38, consecutive or otherwise, unknown, born on Sputnik Day. Currently, I work in retail sales and study computer networking at a community college. I enjoy sci-fi, fitness, drawing, computers, current events and history, science, the arts, cars, clothes, languages, a whole bunch of music, healthy living, and a bunch of other stuff. My first memory of mmm is from my 6th birthday, when my parents bought me the space station and space crawler kit. I remember when it was being set up. I was too small to do it myself, so my Mom basically did the whole thing. She even got the flying back pack with the cord working properly. I remember sitting in the darkened living room with them watching the purple light of the station beacon blink on and off.

Extractions: "The story of America is one of journey and discovery - of many groups and individuals who shared common dreams and challenges, even as their differences shaped our culture. The Hispanic community, itself of wonderfully varied backgrounds, continues to contribute to every aspect of our society - and understanding America means knowing and celebrating these stories." Ellen Ochoa, the first Hispanic woman in space, serves as a role model to all students to try their best in all they do. In her role as a NASA Astronaut, she makes time to visit schools to encourage all students to study hard and not be afraid of success. Ellen is one of five children. While in junior high school, her parents divorced and she moved with her mother. Her extraordinary achievements demonstrates the credibility of her advice about success. In 1980 she graduated top of her class from San Diego State University with a Bachelor of Science Degree in Physics. San Diego is not far from her hometown of La Mesa, California nor far from the city of her birth in 1958, Los Angeles. Ochoa attended Stanford University and earned a Master's in 1981, and a Doctorate in 1985, both in electrical engineering. Her doctoral work in electrical engineering led to a patented optical system to detect defects in a repeating pattern. This system can be used in manufacturing to inspect intricate parts for quality control.

Extractions: Microgravity Facilities for Columbus Division, ESA Directorate of Manned Spaceflight and Microgravity, ESTEC, Noordwijk, The Netherlands * This article was previously published in full length in ESA Buuletin 90, May 1997. The European participation in the International Space Station Programme was confirmed at the ESA Council Meeting at Ministerial Level in Toulouse in October 1995. In the framework of this participation, the Ministers approved several elements, including the development of the Columbus Orbital Facility (COF) and the programme to develop the facilities required for conducting microgravity experiments in the COF. The latter development effort is known as the Microgravity Facilities for Columbus (MFC) Programme. Microgravity research covers a wide range of activities such as fundamental physics, solidification physics (e.g. crystal growth, metallurgy), physical chemistry, fluid science, biology, biotechnology, human physiology and medicine. Until 1996 the microgravity effort was funded only via the European Microgravity Research Programmes EMIR-1 and -2. In January 1997 the MFC programme has been initiated, complementing EMIR-2; it covers the development of a set of multi-user microgravity facilities to be accommodated in the International Space Station , i.e. in the Columbus Orbital Facility [COF] and via Cooperative Agreements with NASA in the US Laboratory. The objective of the MFC Programme is to have, following the launch of the COF, the four disciplines (i.e. material and fluid sciences, biology and human physiology) constantly present on the International Space Station to maximise the return to the European scientists (Fig. 1).

Extractions: About 40 of my fellow high-school students and I crowded into a small dormitory room to watch Friendship 7 's morning lift-off. Callow we were, but we grasped the enormous risk John Glenn was taking, sitting atop a huge Roman candle. Yet we were comforted, knowing that the machinery on the Cape Canaveral launch pad was the very best America could give its intrepid space explorers. As was the Apollo Saturn monster rocket that later sent men to the moon. Would that were the case with Columbia . The doomed ship was a 1970s concoction. A budget-constrained space agency grabbed off-the-shelf technology in an effort to rapidly build an economical, reusable space vehicle to dock with a space station that ultimately was not funded. With its primary mission mooted, and lacking real-world economics and commercial demand, NASA discovered mission creep. Manned flights were chosen to run many experiments that could be conducted more cheaply and safely by unmanned craft. Extreme risk is, of course, endemic to all experimental flight. The aviators who shattered Mach-number barriers ran great risks, but there was no other way to test super-fast powered flight. From the supersonic to the hypersonic, pilots with "the right stuff" gambled, betting on the best technology available.
T Minus 8 / A History Of Art In Space This is actually a joke that astronauts have played National d'Etudes Spatial) andthe bio Mechanics Group anchoring devices and people with specific roles as http://www.rickyseabra.com/ISADORA THESIS CD/imagesfiles/tminus8.html
Extractions: A History of Art in Space Above is a newspaper clipping I found in a sketchbook of mine from the 1980's when I lived in Brasilia which just goes to show that my obsession with art in space is an early one. Translating from the Portuguese it reads: Songs from Space. Cosmonaut Yuri Romanenko transformed boredom of long orbital voyages into melodies by composing 20 songs - the first to be written in space - about exhaustion from the flights, the absence of family and friends. Rehearsing for ISADORA Michael Jackson's 1995 video "Scream" by director Mark Romanek co-starring Janet Jackson was a video that opened music's doors to zero-gravity on MTV. This video, which is to date the most expensive music video ever produced ($US 7 million) portrays an isolated Michael Jackson in a space ship that is both home and performance space. This home which he inhabits contains a game room, a cultural space for viewing works of art and a meditation space for spiritual practices. The performance space is a hexagonal module in which Michael can dance on the walls and ceiling in a varying gravity environment. At the click of a button he can have zero-G. This portrayal of a gravity-defying module has become a common gimmick in the music video industry since "Scream" premiered in 1995. The gimmick is so pervasive nowadays having appeared in scores of videos. Everyone from Foo Fighters, Madonna, Sheryl Crow, TLC, Jamiroquai, Skunk Anasie have defied gravity in some form or another in their videos. It almost reflects what seems to be a dissatisfaction with what earth-bound production studios have to offer. The music industry may not realize it but they are probably rehearsing for ISADORA more than any other industry or art discipline.
