Fuglesang second chance


The night between thursday and friday, 3:36 am, the Swedish astronaut Christer Fuglesang had the chance to become the first Swedish astronaut in space. Unfortunally they couln't lift due to the weather. Everything here in Sweden have been about this, and they had it live on TV and so on. But no, he's not up yet.


Now, he can have his second chance to get to space. I really hope that he gets this chance, he's been waiting for so long. NASA is going to say whether there will be a second start sunday 2:47 am or not, in about 1 hour 20 minutes. We'll see...


And today, I've been working on a school assignment, in astronomy. About Edwin Hubble and the Hubble Space Telescope. Did you know that the telescope can take such good pictures that if it is over Washington D.C., it can take a picture on a firefly in Tokyo! (*o*)
