To prepare for his journey, Captain Meriwether Lewis was tutored by\n>>\n>> experts in medicine, navigation, astronomy, mathematics, botany, and\n>>\n>> paleontology. What was the hardest part of your training?\n>>\n>> 2. The Corps of Discovery enjoyed fiddle music, do you listen to music\n>> in\n>>\n>> space? If so, what kind?\n>>\n>> 3. How different does your body feel in microgravity and how long does\n>> it\n>>\n>> take to adjust after arrival in the space station?\n>>\n>> 4. Lewis and Clark failed to find a Northwest Passage. Have any of your\n>>\n>> experiments failed or not gone like you wanted?\n>>\n>> 5. While wintering at Fort Clatsop, the Corps of Discovery made buckskin\n>>\n>> clothes as their uniforms wore out. How many outfits of clothing do\n>> you\n>>\n>>\n>> have with you, and what kind of material are they made from?\n>>\n>> 6. Why do you like communicating with kids?\n>>\n>> 7. Meriwether Lewis treasured an ermine scarf he received from a\n>> Shoshone\n>>\n>>\n>> chief. Do you have a souvenir from space? If so, what is it?\n>>\n>> 8. Do you create art from the views from the space station?\n>>\n>> 9. When is your next spacewalk? What is your favorite thing when you\n>> are\n>>\n>> outside the space station?\n>>\n>> 10. Lewis brought his dog Seaman with him on the expedition. Are there\n>> any\n>>\n>>\n>> research animals on the space station now? If so, what are they?\n>>\n>> 11. Although most members of the Corps of Discovery were single, York\n>> and\n>>\n>> John Shields had families at home. Do you miss your family, and how\n>> do\n>>\n>>\n>> you communicate with them?\n>>\n>> 12. Do you guys keep journal like Lewis and Clark did?\n>>\n>> 13. If a microorganism changed genetically on the International Space\n>>\n>> Station would it be considered a space alien?\n>>\n>> 14. Were you in a scouting program as a child? If so, did it affect\n>> your\n>>\n>> desire to work in space?\n>>\n>> 15. Lewis and Clark played backgammon. What games do you play?\n>>\n>> 16. When Sacagawea became sick, Lewis treated her. If you get hurt or\n>> sick,\n>>\n>>\n>> who treats you?\n>>\n>> 17. What are your space suits made of, and can they catch on fire?\n>>\n>> 18. How do you protect your eyes when the space station is facing the\n>> sun?\n>>\n>> 19. Are you doing any experiments with animals adapting to microgravity?\n>>\n>> 20. What does a shooting star or a meteor shower look like from space?\n>>\n>>\n>>\n>>\n>>\n>> PLEASE CHECK THE FOLLOWING FOR MORE INFORMATION ON ARISS UPDATES:\n>>\n>>\n>>\n>> Visit ARISS on Facebook.

With the help of experienced\n>> amateur radio volunteers, ISS crews speak directly with large audiences in\n>> a\n>> variety of public forums. Before and during these radio contacts,\n>> students,\n>> teachers, parents, and communities learn about space, space technologies,\n>> and amateur radio.
