Join NASA for two exciting events on Space Day, May 6, 2004.

The announcement of the 2004 Astronaut Class will occur at the National Air
and Space Museum Steven F. Udvar-Hazy Center in Chantilly, Virginia, at
9:30 a.m. (EDT) and will be broadcast live on NASA Television.

Speakers include NASA Administrator Sean O'Keefe, Director of the National
Air and Space Museum Gen. John Dailey, former Senator John Glenn, current
and former astronauts.

Later that day at 1:30 p.m. (EDT) NASA officials will introduce the Astronaut
Candidates before a group of students and visitors gathered for the fourth
Earth Crew Webcast. The newest group of astronauts is made up of pilots,
engineers, researchers, and educators who will focus their careers on
fulfilling the Vision for Space Exploration.

Earth Crew is comprised of students, teachers, and other adults dedicated to
supporting the Educator Astronauts as they prepare for and explore space. In
addition, Earth Crew members will participate in ground-based projects and
missions. NASA is currently recruiting students, educators, and
families to join
the Earth Crew Team.
