Congratulations to all the participants of Fluxface in Space.
After nearly a year of planning and delays, our mission of organizing and presenting an exhibit in orbit has been accomplished with the landing of the Space Shuttle Endeavour STS-134. Both phases of the project have been completed.
Well done - we did it! If you would like to host an exhibition of the photo documentation of the Fluxface in Space project, please contact Cecil Touchon at the Fluxmuseum.

Thank you to all who came along on the journey and to those at NASA who made it possible.

All Systems Go for STS-133. We Hope!!!
Good news! After months of delays, Space Shuttle Mission STS-133 is scheduled to launch on Thursday February 24, 2011 at 4:50 PM, EST from the Kennedy Space Center, FL - USA.
Let's hope for a spectacular lift-off and a safe return. In addition to carrying a large portion of our Fluxface in Space images, the Space Shuttle Discovery will deliver the Express Logistics Carrier-4 (ELC-4), a Permanent Multipurpose Module (PMM) and critical spare components to the International Space Station.
Update: The final mission STS-134 is scheduled for late April 2011. The actual date is uncertain at this time.
For those who haven't heard, the commander of this final Shuttle Mission, STS-134, will be Mark Kelly, the husband of Rep. Gabrielle Giffords who was seriously wounded by a gunman on January 8, 2011 in an assassination attempt. Gabrielle is making a remarkable recovery and it is hoped she will be attending the launch ceremony.
