CALL DIAL-A-SHUTTLE 1-900-909-NASA
Space Shuttle Discovery is ready once again to take to the skies,
as well as outer space. The five person astronaut team is
scheduled to ride Discovery into Earth Orbit on Monday, March 13.
The shuttle crew will test hardware that will help America build
Space Station Freedom in the 1990's and deploy a 19 ton
communications relay satellite. The astronauts will also conduct
a wide range of experiments, from charting environmental hazards
around the globe to growing protein crystals in microgravity that
could lead to cures for certain medical diseases. As the third
shuttle flight since the loss of Challenger and its crew, the
mission will further qualify space shuttle vehicles for safe and
reliable human transportation into space.
Dial-A-Shuttle based at Johnson Space Center in Houston will be
providing round-the-clock coverage during this exciting five day
mission. You'll be able to listen to the astronauts talking live
to Mission Control. When live coverage is not available, you'll
hear our informed reports and news updates, including background
information on the mission from space experts.
ALL ON DIAL-A-SHUTTLE. 1-900-909-NASA.
(Toll charges apply $2.00 first minute, 45 cents for each
additional minute.)
