Jacob and Will visit with Astronauts

STS-127 Mission Overview

The 16-day mission will feature five spacewalks and complete construction of the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency's Kibo laboratory. Astronauts will attach a platform to the outside of the Japanese module that will allow experiments to be exposed to space.

The STS-127 crew members are Commander Mark Polansky, Pilot Doug Hurley and Mission Specialists Dave Wolf, Christopher Cassidy, Tom Marshburn, Tim Kopra and Canadian Space Agency astronaut Julie Payette. Kopra will join the space station crew and replace Japanese astronaut Koichi Wakata. Wakata will return to Earth on Endeavour to conclude a three-month stay at the station.

Dave Wolf is a friend of Tammy and Paul Brindley, Will's parents. Jacob and Will (although disappointed that the shuttle didn't launch), met an ACTUAL Astronaut and took pictures with them. Dave Wolf, on his final mission in Space, was on his way to the shuttle and asked to speak with both Jacob and Will about the upcoming mission.

Mommy has been keeping up with the commander, Polansky, through Twitter so that she can get up to the minute action on briefings, cancelations and fun facts.

Flordia Vacation Fun 2009

Jacob and Will having fun at the beach in Florida with Tammy, Paul, Nana and Papaw. They wear each other out while waiting for the Space Shuttle Endeavour to take off on it's final mission to the space station to finish a Japanese project.

This was Jacob's first time away from mommy and daddy. Mommy and Daddy were able to blow kisses from across the telephone so that Jacob could have a rare opportunity to watch the shuttle take off. Unfortunately, the mission was canceled several times due to weather and we will have to watch it from home!~
