shuttle

A clip from our local BNN affiliate channel 48

A shuttle arrives, but without the needed reinforcements—instead, it is a young Padawan named Ahsoka Tano, who insists that she has been sent by Master Yoda to serve under Anakin.

Lightyears in space, the space transport shuttle 'Hunter-Gratzner' is met with a deadly meteor shower and crash lands on a baron wasteland with absolutely no life in sight. After their captain dies from a 'fatal impact' upon crash landing, second-in-command Carolyn Fry assumes responsibility of the ten survivors who managed to escape the wreck with their lives, but the death of her captain has her mind deeply troubled and she lacks the will to help the people in need of her assistance. Among these survivors is Richard B. Riddick, a dangerous criminal who was being transported to another prison colony by bounty hunter William Johns but managed to escape after the wreck. After Riddick is recaptured, following the mutilation of colonist Zeke, everyone assumes that he's responsible and after doing a little more investigating, the survivors realize that the colonists who lived on the planet didn't leave or vanish at all: they were eaten by a pack of carnivorous (sometimes cannibalistic) raptors, nocturnal creatures who can't stand the light and so must stay below the surface to avoid getting scorched. Johns assumes that if the raptors are phobic about the daylight, then all they have to do is stick to three suns shining their light on the planet and they'll be fine until an 'evac' arrives. That's easier said than done when Fry examines a solar system model and discovers that the planet they're on falls into a total eclipse every twenty two years and when the lights go out, the...

Incredible views from the ISS today. Heide Stefanyshyn-Piper and Steve Bowen skillfully maneuvered around the station completing the objectives of EVA 1. They removed a depleted nitrogen tank from a stowage platform on the outside of the complex and moved it into Endeavours cargo bay. They also moved a flex hose rotary coupler from the shuttle to the station stowage platform, and started cleaning and lubricating the starboard solar alpha rotary joint. Along the way the Earth gained a new satellite....Ooops! Thankfully nothing important was lost and the astronauts were able to continue the mission without the item.
