NASA SPONSORS INTERNATIONAL SPACE STATION VIDEOCONFERENCE
NASA's International Space Station Program is sponsoring a live,
interactive, 90-minute videoconference on Feb. 19, 1998, from 12:30
p.m. to 2 p.m. EST. The program, called "Countdown to Launch," will
give teachers and students an inside look at the soon-to-be-
launched International Space Station.
The program will feature panel discussions on key space
station challenges from station engineers, astronauts and
scientists, putting students directly in touch with the people
who soon will launch, build and work on the orbiting science
laboratory.
"Countdown to Launch" will be viewed by a national audience
via satellite downlink at approximately 2,100 sites including
schools, libraries and museums. To find a downlink site near
