This Weeks science activities are going to based [MAINLY] on the United States of America’s Historical return to American based space exploration!!
For the last 9 years the USA has been relying on the Russian Space Agency Rocosmos. The U.S. has paid Russia since 2011 to launch its astronauts to the International Space Station.
MAY 27: NASA/SpaceX launch from Cape Canaveral, Florida. This is the first crewed launch from the US since 2011.
You can read about the launch and the two astronauts here. The launch is scheduled for 1:32 Pacific/4:32 Eastern, and coverage will begin well before the launch window. You can watch this historic launch on NASA TV .
