Shuttle Mission STS-59, April 1994
Student Report Overview

In the summers of 1992 and 1993, through the combined efforts of the Johns Hopkins' Center for Talented Youth and Earthwatch's Challenge Awards program, eleven students from across the United States worked at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory assembling the crew notebook for shuttle mission STS-59, the Space Radar Laboratory (SRL). This crew notebook is included on SIRCED03, PC Special Edition in a file called CrewNote.htm (116K HTML).

In April 1994, during the flight of STS-59, three of these students worked at the Johnson Space Center (JSC) in Houston, Texas. These students, Alicyn Campbell of Vernon, Conneticut, now a student at Trinity College in Hartford, Conneticut, Jonathan Woodring of Delta, Ohio, now a student at the University of Southern California in Los Angeles and Aaron Moshiashwili NJ/Rutgers provided support to the Earth Observations Laboratory and the Payload Operations Control Center at JSC during the missions. In addition, all three were able to talk to the astronaut crew during the flight. The students wrote a report of each days activities. These reports were posted on the Internet during the mission and are also included here on SIRCED03.

The student reports are:
