Many thanks to everyone who participated in and helped make our trip to Johnson Space Center a success this past week (esp. Dr. Snowden & Dr. James)!

There were multiple cameras on this trip, and dozens upon dozens of pictures. In order to make these photos accessible to everyone in the highest resolution, lowest hassle format possible, David Chang has set up an online photo album with AOL Pictures. To view the album, click here, or visit our photos page for the link (coming soon). To add photos to, or save photos from, the album, use the instructions in the group e-mails sent by David Chang. If you have questions, suggestions, or problems, please let us know by sending us an e-mail. Thanks!
