Mission Possible

After much rehearsing, Team Earhart actually performed their mission on Wednesday.




The campers were nervous and excited as they put-on their flight suits.



                                                       They posed for their team photo. 






Here are the four Earhart members from WPSD and SSDHHC.

 

Like a proud mother, I was photographed with Paola and Ryane before lift-off.






During the mission, Paola and Cassie were assigned the jobs of scientists aboard the International Space Station.



 They conducted experiments and checked vital information to be sure the ISS remained in orbit.















Ryan was in Mission Control.  She was responsible for helping to solve any crisis situations that occurred. 


On the Enterprise, the pilot, co-pilot, and mission specialists, contacted Mission Control before performing any operations.






The Mission Specialists had the task of walking in space and setting up special equipment.  















The staff was very proud and impressed when Team Earhart completed their mission within the time restraints.  They successfully took-off, completed the experiments, performed the space walk, returned the specialists safely to the shuttle and landed!!!   Many teams do not complete all of the mission on time.  When "anomalies" occurred, the group worked together and came up with a solution.  What a wonderful team!
