The astronauts are scheduled to link up with the Hubble Telescope today (Wednesday) and you can watch it all live on NASA TV. 

Here’s the link: NASA TV

This is a very cool site because you can watch the astronauts during their space walks, see live rocket launches and learn about space and space travel with their educational program.

Check it out!

The Space Shuttle is now in orbit above the Earth and you could see it pass over Southern New England during the next couple of weeks.

Check out this website from NASA.  Just click on a city near you and you can get the times the Shuttle and Space Station pass overhead. 

You can see them without binoculars, but it’ll only look a star moving quickly across the sky.  A good pair of binoculars may give you the shape of the shuttle.

Enjoy!
