After yesterday's successful flight the team was looking forward to
another great day of experimenting in the "Weightless Wonder." It was
Jill, Janos, and Scott's turn to experience what Carl, Roxanne, and Tom had
enjoyed the previous day. There was a bit of a delay in the morning, so
the flight took off 45 minutes behind schedule. Time went by quickly and
our flyers were back at Ellington Field before the ground crew had time
to miss them. Look for Scott, Janos, and Jill's experiences from their
flight on later blog posts.

After the team removed the apparatus from the plane and packed it into the car we turned in our badges and said our goodbyes to our NASA Mentor. He was so supportive through out this process and we are truly grateful for all he has done for the team. Thank you Tom!!

Go Astros! |
The team came back to the hotel and took a dip in the pool before we began disassembling the apparatus. The RGO bought all the flight week participants tickets to the Houston Astros game against the Arizona Dimondbacks. Astros won in overtime 5-4!
