23 luglio 2010 : New Hubble Discovery, SOFIA's Second Series, and More on This Week @ NASA

The Hubble Space Telescope has confirmed the existence of a giant scorched planet with a tail like a comet. About 153 light years from Earth, this exoplanet (outside our solar system) is so close to its star that one of its years is 3-and-a-half of our days. Also, NASA's Stratospheric Observatory for Infrared Astronomy is flying its second series of flight tests to prove its airworthiness for 20 years worth of science gathering. Plus, Girls in Space, Kids to Work, Mars Day, and Crew Visit.

30 luglio 2010 : Rover's First "Steps" Make "Parents" Proud on This Week @ NASA

The Mars Science Laboratory, also known as Curiosity, rolled across a clean room floor at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory, essentially taking its first "steps" before proud mission team members. The largest rover ever made for Mars is scheduled to launch to the Red Planet in the fall of 2011. Also, two Russian cosmonauts made a successful spacewalk outside the International Space Station; wind tunnel testing is making human spaceflight safer; the first map to cover the entire surface of Mars makes its debut online, and more.

6 AGOSTO 2010: Spacewalkers Make Progress on This Week @ NASA

Expedition 24 Flight Engineers Doug Wheelock and Tracy Caldwell Dyson completed the first spacewalk to replace a failed ammonia pump module on the International Space Station. The 8 hour, 3 minute excursion fell short of removing the failed Pump Module due to a leak in the fourth of four ammonia line connectors.

Also, NASA and ESA, the European Space Agency, have joined forces and resources to explore the Red Planet; ATHLETE the robotic rover has a stretch run; a revealing composite image of two galaxies that first collided more than 100 million years ago; NASA summer interns learn flight testing with a remote-controlled airplane; and two NASA anniversaries are celebrated August 12.

13 AGOSTO 2010: New Science Module Slated for Station on This Week @ NASA

The next hardware to fly to the International Space Station, the permanent multi-purpose module, was unveiled to reporters at the Kennedy Space Center. Once unloaded of spare parts and supplies, the PMM will be installed on the station and used for numerous microgravity experiments. Also, America's top teachers go to space camp; the "Dean of Invention" comes to Langley; Palmdale gets special flag; and astronaut Leland Melvin "floats" at the Football Hall of Fame parade.

20 AGOSTO 2010: Spacewalkers Provide Cool Under Pressure on This Week @ NASA

The third of three spacewalks by Expedition 24 Flight Engineers Doug Wheelock and Tracy Caldwell Dyson restored a pressurized cooling loop aboard the International Space Station. The duo removed and replaced a failed ammonia pump that brought down one of the station's two cooling loops July 31. Also, NASA hosted some 1,000 participants at its first Information Technology Summit held outside Washington; a closeout of open-door tests aboard SOFIA; the nation's top teachers are schooled on space; NASA Exploration Day at Busch Gardens; and a Gemini program mission marks its 45th anniversary.
