Space Station Expedition 33 flight engineer Kevin Ford (on screen) answers questions from students during a downlink event held in honor of International Education Week at the Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum, Thursday, Nov. 15, 2012 in Washington.  Seen next to Ford is Exp. 33 Commander Sunita Williams. More than 9,500 student participants from the Student Spaceflight Experiments Program (SSEP) around the country took part in the live video event.  This was a joint venture between the Department of Education and the National Center for Earth and Space Science Education (NCESSE).
