Astronaut Mark Polansky, Edison native, is finally coming down to Earth. Literally. Last month, two times in less than a week, a potentially dangerous hydrogen gas leak forced NASA to
delay shuttle Endeavour's launch--Endeavor brought new equipment to the International Space Station. However, Astronaut Mark Polansky used
Twitter to keep the public updated on the mission, during the delays, launch, work and now re-entry. Check out his Twitter diary and get a sense of what it's really like for a human being to be floating around in space observing the big blue marble we all live on.
I have known Mark Polansky since he was a young
man growing up next door to me on Eileen way in Edison NJ.
He was always a model son and showed great
drive for reaching for the stars. He has proven that by believing in your dreams combined with a lot of hard work you can do anything!!!
We are so proud of you Mark!
