Today in Space

Expedition 27 crewmates Dmitry Kondratyev, Cady Coleman and Paolo Nespoli are set to land in Kazakhstan at 10:26 p.m. EDT. The crew plans to take unprecedented imagery of the combined shuttle and station during undocking.

Astronauts Drew Feustel and Mike Fincke completed an 8-hour, 7-minute spacewalk at 10:12 a.m. EDT Sunday, the 6th longest spacewalk in history. Their third spacewalk is scheduled for Wednesday.

On the night of May 20, 2011, a six-foot diameter fragment of an unknown comet entered the atmosphere approximately 66 miles above Macon, Ga., traveling northwest at about 86,000 miles an hour, roughly 5 times the speed of the space shuttle. The event was captured by NASA sky cameras.
