The space shuttle Atlantis scheduled for launch on the 11th May heading for the Hubble Telescope.
I have been following one of the astronauts on the mission with TWITTER. Its great to receive live messages from Mike Massimino!

Astro_Mike From orbit: Just flew over the US, Baja to Miami in about 10 minutes! Beautiful Day!!
Astro_MikeFrom orbit: My second spacewalk was long but all worked out in the end, team effort

Astro_Mike From orbit: At the end of my spacewalk, I had time to just look at the Earth, the most awesome sight my eyes have seen, undescribable
From orbit: This is an awesome experience, the privilege to fly in space and work on the Hubble is beyond my dreams
