Our shuttle crew is four people, because we're going to transfer a crew up to station, so all the jobs are divided between four people rather than five or six people. So it's been busy. — Linda M. Godwin Copy Share Image
We didn't use the shuttle robot arm before, so this has been a training flow to get ready for that. — Linda M. Godwin Copy Share
I did grow up with a really big interest in math and science; I liked it. — Linda M. Godwin Copy Share

It definitely helps to have been through the arm training flow before and to have used the arm on orbit, and it also gives… — Linda M. Godwin Copy Share
We launch when we're kind of in the same orbit that they are in terms of being matched up in inclination in space, and… — Linda M. Godwin Copy Share
As always, we prepare for all sorts of contingencies. And the first few days of the flight up until docking on Day 3 are… — Linda M. Godwin Copy Share
A lot of these things will fly in later forms on the space station themselves, or a later form of that research will, once… — Linda M. Godwin Copy Share
It's really kind of a challenge to keep coordinated with the two station crews that we'll be interacting with. And of course one of… — Linda M. Godwin Copy Share
We're on the same radius from the Earth, and then we start to swing around to where we're ahead of them on the velocity… — Linda M. Godwin Copy Share
UF is Utilization Flight. That got put in the manifest quite some time ago. — Linda M. Godwin Copy Share
We still have a lot of international partner modules that need to get up there to make it truly the international structure that it… — Linda M. Godwin Copy Share
It is a very busy mission: every day has some major goals that we have to get through, but my experience before has been… — Linda M. Godwin Copy Share
We're taking up some science experiments, some crystal growth things, we have a refrigerator that carries up some samples, new samples that go into… — Linda M. Godwin Copy Share
Although I know a lot of the previous shuttle flights, in theory, had their tasks laid out; but there were still some changes that… — Linda M. Godwin Copy Share
