Shuttle pilot connects with Golden Hill students; Astronaut Mark Kelly
promises to wave as he passes over
BY MIKE LABELLA - EAGLE-TRIBUNE NEWSPAPER N.ANDOVER,MASS
HAVERHILL,MASS. USA | When space shuttle Atlantis blasts into orbit
this fall,
there's a chance it will be carrying a T-shirt signed by children in two
Golden Hill Elementary School classrooms.
But if NASA astronaut Mark E. Kelly cannot get permission to carry the
shirt on the ride, he promised to at least wave to children as his
spacecraft passes over Massachusetts during its 11-day mission.
Third-graders in Mary Larcome's class and fourth-graders in Joann
Atwood's class plan to follow this adventure as it unfolds, especially
after their questions about space were answered by Kelly, a Navy commander,
who will pilot Atlantis.
Kelly, 40, went to college with John and Terri Zaino, the brother and
sister-in-law of Judy Zaino, supervisor of elementary curriculum for
Haverhill's public schools.
John and Terri's nephew and niece, fourth-grader Joshua Zaino and
third-grader Lia Zaino both attend Golden Hill. They and their classmates
recently asked Kelly a number of questions, including "What does zero
gravity feel like?"
They e-mailed their questions to John Zaino, and he in turn forwarded
them to his friend Kelly.
"It feels like you're going over the top of the roller coaster
initially," Kelly responded. "Then you get used to it and you can fly
around the spaceship like Superman. It is a lot of fun!"
Third-grader Haylee G. Krenzer, 9, was surprised by his response.
"It sounds scary," Haylee said. "I'm not going into space, it sounds too
scary."
Third-grader Brianna L. Moses wondered if astronauts ate dehydrated food
and wondered what if they ate would taste good.
Kelly said that shrimp cocktail is one of his favorite things to eat in
space, along with Mexican scrambled eggs, chicken in peanut sauce, "and of
course, the spinach."
"I don't think spinach would taste that good," Brianna said with a
grimace. "I don't like it that much."
Third-grader Jared W. Huberdeau, 9, wondered what it is like to lift off
from the launching pad.
Kelly said it felt "like a runaway train going 1,000 miles per hour."
"I'd like to do the launch part, but not the landing," said Jared. "If
they don't come in at the right time they burst into flames."
Larcome saw the connection between her school and a real astronaut as a
perfect opportunity for her students to practice their letter writing
skills. She said this project generated a lot of enthusiasm as it made a
connection to a real event that will take place.
"They love to do anything that's not routine," Larcome said. "They knew
there was a chance that Kelly would write back, which made it even more
exciting."
Fourth grade is when children begin learning about space and the solar
system, so communicating with a shuttle pilot was a chance to learn
firsthand from an expert.
"It makes it really meaningful to make this connection and follow this
mission," Atwood said. "Children really feel they are part of it."
Fourth-grader Hayley C. Duquette, 9, wanted to know if it was difficult
to walk around wearing a spacesuit but didn't think she'd really get an
answer back.
"He's a very busy man and I'm surprised he answered our questions,"
Hayley said. "You really need to be smart to be an astronaut."
Joshua Zaino thought it was cool that his uncle put his class in touch
with an astronaut and hopes he can travel to Florida this fall to see the
launch in person.
"I'm 50 percent sure I'll be able to go," Joshua said.
To make this project even more exciting, children in both classrooms are
signing a Golden Hill T-shirt they plan to send to Kelly in hopes he will
take it into space with him.
"If he can't, at least he will have the shirt," Larcome said.
Kelly's brief bio:
Kelly is a graduate of the U.S. Merchant Marine Academy. He served as
the pilot for STS-108 (Space Transportation System) Endeavour (Dec. 5 to
17, 2001), the 12th shuttle flight to visit the international space
station. He is assigned as the pilot on STS-121, the first mission of space
shuttle Atlantis since Columbia's mishap on Feb. 1, 2003. He has performed
one space walk and has traveled 4.8 million miles orbiting the earth 185
times in 283 hours and 36 minutes.
Questions posed to Cmdr. Mark Kelly by children in Mary Larcome and
Joann Atwood's classes, and the answers they received:
Q. What does zero gravity feel like?
A. It feels like you're going over the top of the roller coaster
initially. Then you get used to it and you can fly around the spaceship
like Superman. It is a lot of fun!
Q. What will you do while orbiting the Earth in space? What is your
mission?
A. We will work inside and outside of the space station. We will
transfer a lot of cargo. We'll also test new capabilities that will allow
us to repair the space shuttle thermal protection system. We're flying a
brand-new boom that will attach to the robot arm and allow us to reach the
underside of the space shuttle to get access to all of the tiles. During
our first spacewalk we'll test this new boom. We also have some science
experiments on board.
Q. If you squeeze toothpaste in the space shuttle, will it float?
A. Everything floats ...
Q. How long does it take to orbit the Earth in the space shuttle?
A. Ninety minutes for a lap around the planet. We'll do a lot of laps in
12 days. We'll probably travel about five million miles but why don't you
do that math and let me know.
Q. What kinds of food do you eat in space?
A. There are about 500 things on the menu that you can choose from. One
of my favorites is the shrimp cocktail. I also like the Mexican scrambled
eggs, the chicken in peanut sauce and of course, the spinach.
Q. Is it hard to walk in a spacesuit?
A. The suits we launch in are called launch and entry suits. They're
probably about 70 lbs. so it is hard to walk into and out of the space
shuttle. The suits that we do the spacewalks in are about 700 lbs., but we
only wear those in zero gravity so then they don't weigh anything.
Q. Do you lose weight in space?
A. I think I lost a couple of pounds. It was mostly water weight because
in "zero-g" your body gets rid of some water. You get very dehydrated
because as the fluid shifts in your body due to lack of gravity your body
thinks it has too much fluid. You urinate that extra fluid out when you're
in space.
Q. What does the launch feel like?
A. Like a runaway train going 1,000 miles per hour.
Q. Does the space shuttle have different rooms?
A. Three. Flight deck, mid deck and an airlock.
Q. When you go over us, can you wave to Golden Hill School?
A. I don't have any idea where Golden Hill is. I'll wave to
Massachusetts.
Q. Did you really go to college with Josh and Lia Zaino's aunt and
uncle?
A. I really did go to school with them. We were even in the same company
and dormitory building and are really good friends.
