This week's NASA Student Opportunities Podcast goes underwater to
interview Educator Astronaut Ricky Arnold. On Aug. 6, 2007, Arnold
and the NASA Extreme Environment Mission Operations, or NEEMO, 13
crew began a 10-day undersea mission aboard the National Oceanic and
Atmospheric Administration Aquarius Underwater Laboratory.
The crew is testing lunar exploration concepts and long-duration
spaceflight medical objectives. The mission comes at an exciting time
-- while Arnold is on Aquarius, mission specialist Barbara Morgan is
making the first spaceflight of an Educator Astronaut on the STS-118
shuttle mission. Both missions carry with them plant growth chambers
used for research related to NASA's Engineering Design Challenge.
To hear Arnold discuss lunar exploration, NASA's Engineering Design
Challenge: Lunar Plant Growth Chamber and student involvement with
