There isn't time for mistakes. You need to go up there and do your best. This past July, Cady went to work in space again on Space Shuttle Columbia. There was so much excitement about this telescope. We have been waiting to get telescopes outside Earth orbit so we can see out into the universe.
Technology makes discovery possible.
Cady is now training to work in the control center at the Johnson Space Center. In between her own flights to space, she will be one of the voices the astronauts in space hear when they call home. Her experience as an astronaut and scientist will come in handy as she works with other astronaut-scientists in space. And with the space station currently in construction, Cady hopes one day soon she will be conducting experiments on the International Space Station. On the space station, we would have more time to do more scientific exploration.
