Well, it's not the node of the International Space Station he wanted, but it is something. Go here for more info. I personally really like the logo.

NASA, pink boots, and daisies
Go here for a very funny NASA story involving test pilots, the X-24B plane, and pink boots. This picture is priceless. Hope you enjoy!

NASA 50th Anniversary Webpage
To commemorate it's 50th anniversary, defined by when Pres. Eisenhower signed a bill passed by Congress to create it, NASA has created this website which offers a tour of its major achievements and accomplishments - including a lot of neat multimedia features including archival footage of press conferences and interviews. Hope you enjoy!

Interview with former astronaut Captain Gene Cernan (Ret.)
As many of you probably already know, the Discovery channel is now broadcasting a new documentary on NASA titled When We Left Earth: The NASA Missions which covers the history of NASA's manned spacecraft program, and includes lots of amazing documentary footage never before broadcast. (I saw the first few installments while in Socorro, NM for a summer school on radio interferometry, and it is extremely impressive.) As part of the publicity for this documentary, the Discovery channel hosted an interview with former astronaut Captain Gene Cernan (Ret.), which you can listen to here. Enjoy!
