@brenthaeseker there is a very early mockup of Orion at the @SpaceCampUSA by the #saturnV #nasatweetup #

The Internet returns! 2 HR down time waiting on causeway bus to get auth to go. On way to causeway now! #
Doing good. Staked out a spot that I hope no one jumps in front when candle is lit. Big crowd out on the causeway #
@cobaltjacket @selucas Amanda E, a local. Didn't tell us how many days so she's got a lit of check-ins. Maybe an old fashion overthrow #

Joe Lucas — Sun, 03 Jul 2011 09:15:00 +0000

@spionchen but its a dry heat #ugh #
@NoWeareCL wow indeed! #NASATweetup #
@AndreaFarmer will the MPCV be on display at the KSCVC through July 9? I'd love to see while i'm down for the launch. #
@johnnystock i thought the 4th is what i had read. I'm hoping for a few more days. It makes sense to me you'd want it there for launch. #
@flyingjenny Count me in. I'd love to visit! #
@timmermansr woot! Congrats! #NASAStandby #NASATweetup #
@KelleyApril Its pretty cool when you find 'your' people. Warms my heart #NASATweetup #SCTweetup #
@KelleyApril @glancz Its official … Go for LAUNCH! #
@ScionBoo http://t.co/SN9CDtp @spacecampUSA #
@ScionBoo @glancz @kelleyapril I'm not opposed to this #SCRetweetup #
@ScionBoo @KelleyApril @SprocketeersOrg @glancz we should make sure to coordinate some KSCVC time together. Ride Shuttle launch experience! #
@cobaltjacket I had dinner with the guy that took that photo #STS41B #
@cobaltjacket actually it did come up and he didn't care Thought it wasn't worth the effort. He was one cool character #
@KelleyApril @glancz @bethejustin @scionboo @sprocketeersorg say a couple of hours after launch? That'll give you guys time to absorb. #
@skyviewscience I think i would be awesome to fill the shuttle launch experience with tweetup folks #nasatweetup #avoidtraffic #
@KelleyApril @glancz @bethejustin @scionboo @sprocketeersorg and time for me to get back from the causeway #
@MrTdotJohnson go to http://go.nasa.gov/JSC135 and click the register link about halfway down the page. Hurry! #NASATweetup #HELP #
@MrTdotJohnson you have about 20 more minutes to register #NOOOO #
@CausewayTweetup I'll be there with @selucas and @RocketScientist #
@scienceesl real and a bit cheaper .. both of those are good things #
@herrea Looks like you are on a Navy ship #STS135 #
@scienceesl they should pull through the locks very early on Monday morning (with ontime launch). 6am or so #
@scienceesl check out http://bit.ly/jHz6Rr for very good info. A group of us are going to try to see this on Monday #
wondering if i should wear my bike helmet with attached GoPro camera all day at launch #causewaytweetup #
@cobaltjacket i've got problems if a seagull takes it while i'm wearing it #
@DrVonBraun i would do the time lapse mode. I prob will wear it around my neck. I wife won't will allow the bike helmet #causewaytweetup #
@ralphhightower hmmm .. with the correct mount …. #
@JoeyLicklider watch for spacecamp tweetups and you'll get your chance #NASATweetup #fb #
@SpaceCampUSA what! #3 #SCTweetup #
@JoeyLicklider spacecamp tweetup #3 is about to be announced. I highly recommend it #NASATweetup #STS133 #STS134 #
@travelermom I really do #3 #SCTweetup #
@ScionBoo @KelleyApril @glancz @bethejustin @sprocketeersorg maybe You'll be going the opposite direction so hopefully that'll work #
@glancz holy moly .. you are going to meet Elmo!? #NASATweetup #STS135 #
@glancz I saw Elmo on Top Chef .. you'll be giddy #
@jruckman I'd like an invite if you still got some #
@jruckman joeluc@gmailcom #
@kreegan99 We are supposed to get at -4.0 in Indiana. #ISS #
@txflygirl I really like tweetbot for iphone twittering #
@txflygirl Reeder if you read RSS feeds, MissionClock, NASA app, flyby #
@txflygirl calcbot for your calculating needs #
@ChrisAstro You add people to 'circles' and that sends the invites #
Heading out to see the ISS pass. #
@CatherineQ looks like they turned off invites for the night #
@Joi_the_Artist apparently google turned off the inviting for tonight #
@mgrabois we are going to find out Its way easier to understand that wave was. #
@MrGuilt they are currently turned off #
@bayourat thats cutting it kinda close #
@bayourat We had a bunch of guys about to turn blue over here #
@txflygirl It was a web page not an app (unless you made an icon for it) #
@txflygirl @bonkoif I was only speaking to the G+ issue .. not characterizing state of mind #
@CatherineQ most definately agree. tweeting questions helps a lot of people #spacetweeps #
@johnnystock one diff is fine control on the which groups get a status update, you can do multiples and individuals while posting #
@johnnystock the privacy controls seem very granular which is very good. The hangout feature is kind of intriguing #
@bethejustin i really like the new themes but it needs a dark background #
can't believe we are just days away from launch of #STS135 #svptweetup #
arriving MCO at 2pm #svptweetup #
We are a definate maybe on KSCVC on Sat. Earlier would be better. #svptweetup #
@deliciousblur #endlessbbq will be on Merritt Island @JerryWS98 #svptweetup #
@KelleyApril is it a video interview? If so you must have a face tattoo #NASATweetup #
@SprocketeersOrg @scionboo @kelleyapril @glancz at the Haulover canal? That's where i'd be if i didn't get the causeway tix #
@KelleyApril sharpie! Just remember the mirror reverse the image #NASATweetup #
@glancz @SprocketeersOrg @scionboo @kelleyapril i say we try for 2-3 hrs after launch at KSCV, or Sat morning KSCVC (also #endlessbbq #
@ageekmom @glancz haha .. you guys have that "if its wrong to be this excited, i don't want to be right!" thing going #
@schierholz Lasik is so on my list of things to do. I really need to get to it. #
ditto RT @AstroN8: We are now just over one week away from the final launch of the American space shuttle. Can't believe it… #STS135 #
hey me too! Can not wait RT @CatherineQ: I'll be in FL this time next week for final space shuttle launch – tweeting live #STS135 #
@SprocketeersOrg @glancz @scionboo @kelleyapril works for me. It gives the traffic time to unwind (which will take hours & hours) #
@KelleyApril thanks for the warning #NASATweetup #
@cmilesbaker can you give me a follow? #
@QuarkSpin I wonder if group one can be the VonBrauns if you are going to take Team Baker #SCTweetup #
@ScionBoo @glancz @SprocketeersOrg @kelleyapril I believe it's open until 8pm #
@ScionBoo @glancz @SprocketeersOrg @kelleyapril i'm flying in that day and the others will be at nasatweetup. Your ticket is good for 2 days #
@ScionBoo @glancz @SprocketeersOrg @kelleyapril so you could go thursday and friday #
@pwt1997 I wouldn't bet against that #sctweetup #sts135 #nasatweetup #
@KelleyApril I'd probably go with 2 8 gigs or a 1 16 gig. That'll hold a ton of pictures. #2 #NASATweetup #
@KelleyApril video is your big variable, more video bigger card. 16 gigs will get you 2-3K pictures in jpg without video #2 #NASATweetup #
@KelleyApril warrenty plans usually are pure profit for the store .. i'd say no #3 #NASATweetup #
@Slainte_Mhaith i see you are on my work schedule now #
@KelleyApril 64's are expensive #
@flyingjenny will the dragon be on display through the 10th? #
@cmilesbaker could you send me a message .. got a question for you. Thanks! #
@shimpster You won't be the only one #NASATweetup #Atlantis #
@bethejustin @CatherineQ @chrisastro @ageekmom same here. I had it in the background but as soon as the comm check i snapped aware #
@CatherineQ thanks for the #FF Can't wait to meet in a week #
@bethejustin @catherineq @chrisastro @ageekmom i still have a feeling in the pit of my stomach at 'go at throttle up'. Every time. #
@bethejustin @ChrisAstro @catherineq @ageekmom Actually it was around 10:30-11am.I was in HS freshman science class when a teacher announced #
@bethejustin @ChrisAstro @catherineq @ageekmom it was my remember where you were, what you were doing moment in history #
@CatherineQ @shimpster @bethejustin @chrisastro @ageekmom kind of a loss of innocence. It really changed the program #
@glancz either that chair is really small or your table is rather huge! #missionaccomplished #exhausted #
I did not know this .. 5 launch pad 39s, A-E were considered. 2 built of course, A & B #nasafact #nasatweetup #
you guys might have #nasatweetup but i might be able to do my own Cape Canaveral then & now tour. #spacegeek excited! #
@Clearedthetower @SWGlassPit I've never done the real tour .. this will be on my own so hopefully will see stuff not on reg tour #
@mgrabois could you give me a follow .. got a question for you. Thanks! #
@cmilesbaker those are awesome pictures! #
@cmilesbaker did you have the camera set on a tripod with a remote? #
@cmilesbaker I'll have 300mm lense so really gives me an idea of what i'll be able to get #
@cmilesbaker Thanks for the tips. I didn't have a remote at #STS132 so I only got a couple of good shots. I hope to do better #
@cmilesbaker so thats how you did it (post-process)? My night shot is just a big ball of fire (STS126) #
@cmilesbaker It was very informative for me. Thanks a bunch! #
@glancz We love farmers markets! #
@schierholz @glancz you're convincing me to make lasik happen. I'm ready to be done with contacts #
@txflygirl disturbing. I really like their service. #
@josephgruber Gravelly Point Park is on my list of places to visit #

@glancz don't question that. Of course you should have gone #
@AleyaJean woot! Congratulations #aleyasizedcrater #
@ageekmom if Atlantis takes off per current schedule when do you est the SRBs will be back to port? #
@shimpster @ageekmom do they tend to the locks thing real early? trying to figure if we migt be able to see with a 11:05AM flight MON #ymmv #
@shimpster @ageekmom excellent .. we might have a shot at it then! Something you are going to try to see? #
@spionchen its 6!? #

@glancz what that what?! #NASATweeetup #sts135 #omgimaydiefromexcitement #
@ChrisAstro I've learned the hard way that those fares play games. #
@Justmyspace RSS is small potatoes compared to the launch #NASATweetup #
@ChrisAstro take a look at bing travel. They have a 'fare predictor' that might help #
@Justmyspace so what. quit your whining. #NASATweetup #
@Justmyspace see 'don't look a gift horse in the mouth' in the dictionary. #NASATweetup #
@Justmyspace yes .. when you posts the same thing multiple times. You made your case. It is what it is. Life isn't fair sometimes. #
@Justmyspace i'm sure if they could have got 150 people into Discoveries chair they would have. I didn't go to the VAB for 132. It happens #
@Justmyspace dude i followed it on twitter. I know what you missed. I missed stuff at a JSC tweetup. I'm not repeatily complaining about it #
@Justmyspace sure. Make sure you repeat about every 6 hours to get full coverage. I'm sure that will get your wrongs righted #
@Justmyspace advice #
@Justmyspace who says i don't agree? I said your complaint is being repeative. #
@Justmyspace no i said the whole experice was a gift. 1K people have been afforded that gift. To others you are celeb w/special treatment #
@Justmyspace its all about perspective. You want to dwell on the negative not look at what you got to experience. #
@Justmyspace i think you've made your point that the celebs got special treatment. I'd agree but that shouldn't diminish what you got do #
@Justmyspace until the tweetsup celebs were they only ones with access and you wouldn't have even been there. #
@Justmyspace You should have asked first Its all okay. I just don't think you are going find your remedy here. #
@Justmyspace I think if they could get you to RSS they would. I'm surprised they got you guys back for launch period. Thats a gift! #
@SprocketeersOrg wow .. what year is that from? #SCTweetup #
@mclobridge Do it! It was an amazing experience. We all want to go back for the adult program. see http://flic.kr/g/fD23Z #SCtweetup #
@mclobridge its on the bucket list for sure I think next summer we are going to do it. Can't wait to see your tweets! #SCtweetup #
@geekygirlau I hope you were getting airline miles! You coming back for this one? #STS133 #NASATweetup #STS134 #

and power it by potato! RT @joelwalker: I wantbto make one of these for JSC.: ISS Notify http://is.gd/eO3CR5 via @Ziteapp #

@spionchen I hear she was bright tonight. We had too many clouds here :{ #ISS #
@girlhack keep your eye out. SpaceCamp is doing tweetups these days. You can fulfill that one too! #nasatweetup #
@girlhack you won't know if it does till you attend #
@ageekmom world can't end before they get Atlantis up #ohnonotagain #
@TheSuss reminds me of the SNL commercial http://bit.ly/l1FYz5 #
@janellewilson How long is your @SpaceCampUSA program? #
@janellewilson @spacecampusa I can not wait for your tweets of what your doing. Hopefully the'll let you tweet from space! #
@cobaltjacket do it .. maybe you can get some graft #
@KelleyApril i think so as i've seen an exponential increase of people complaining about spammers! I've seen it too actually #
@Henrietta_K did you link them up to the flickr group? #SCTweetup #
@singerunlimited Its real .. and its spectacular #NASATweetup #
@davecgibson I'm thinking a absolute min of 6 hrs prior and i have think i'm going to shoot for 8. #spacetweeps #STS135 #
@Jamesfink @ageekmom i'm interested. Looks about 12-14 miles? #
@janellewilson @ageekmom @jamesfink hopefully no one is paying attention #STS135 #
@Jamesfink is there viewing there without using a kayak? #
I highly, highly recommend the SpaceCamp tweetup for any space enthusiast. Multi-Axis Simulator, 'nuff said http://ow.ly/5gAga #sctweetup #
@Jamesfink @gkasica @ageekmom this appears to be a diamond in the rough location .. thanks James! #
@KelleyApril I feel bad but i'm still drafting my blog posting about #SCTweetup Hopefully in a day or two mine will be up too. #
thats on my list! RT @DrVonBraun: Just pulled up to the Strategic Air & Space Museum. Beautiful Air Force Titan Missile to greet me. #
@DrVonBraun Check out the Apollo Block 1 command module flown on a beautiful Saturn IB #
@KelleyApril That was our plan all along! #
@ageekmom @radio_mike yes! I have more @NASA centers that i need to visit #NASATweetup #
@ageekmom congrats on 151! #
@txflygirl you gonna try to make this one? #SCTweetup #
@txflygirl no offense intended to @SpaceCampUSA but i'd probably take the launch first. #
@SpaceCampUSA I wholeheartily agree that #SCTweetup is next .. in fact i did just that on run #1 #NASA #nasatweetup #
Sign up for the @SpaceCampUSA where you can find out how urine is made into water #sctweetup (its actually fascinating) http://bit.ly/m2r3fN #
@ChrisAstro @ScionBoo Southwest is no charge flight changes (just pay the cost difference if any). Already used that feature today! #
@SFC_Don its complicated They recover 98% of the volume into distilled water (if i remember). Bunch of steps to make it happen. #
@WinObs View is better at #SVPTweetup #NASATweetup. Pad is blocked by trees at KSCVC so you don't see the launch till clears #
@travelholic hahah .. you keep one of those lists too? #spacetweeps #NASAtweetup #lovingit #wanttomeetallofyou #
@bama106 hope you make it in. Its a really good time #SCTweetup #NASA #
@ItinerantMonk it is a pretty schweet tweetup #Sctweetup #NASATweetup #schweetup #
I'm not sure my no douchebag suggestion was followed #
@justmyspace @txflygirl those relationships, the community, is the real golden ticket #
@karenabad You should be … its awesome #
@NASATweetup Thank you for the clarification! Thats good news. #NASATweetup #
@philanderegg @shimpster Laptop makes for easier tweeting in the tent #NASAtweetup You'll have access to your vehicle so pack away! #
@philanderegg better to have it and not use it than not have it than need it Having the car really helps. #NASAtweetup #
@janellewilson woot! #
most likely! RT @scienceesl: Wonder if I will be the only #nasatweetup #sts135 without a smart phone…. or an ipad #
@scienceesl i guess pictures will suffice! #
@shimpster Smart move. set the video & cameras to auto and then use the Mark 1 eyeballs #nasatweetup #godgiven #soakitin #
@bethejustin @shimpster @MDBenson think magnesium flame #
@GoodGadd Stay at KSC for a long while after the launch (traffic back to Orlando sucks (5-6 hrs)) #NASATweetup #
@GoodGadd It was smooth sailing the day before. You'll get there pretty early launch day so traffic should be ok there too #NASATweetup #
@barnstormed @GoodGadd it was forever getting back to ORL from STS126 so i can't imagine the backup for #STS135 #NASAtweetup #
<—– attracting spammers .. should i be flattered? #
@GoodGadd @barnstormed a keen time to visit the vistors center and spend some money! #NASAtweetup #
@GoodGadd better to get a ride with another attendee. I'm not sure a dropoff can get you to the VAB #NASAtweetup #
@GoodGadd not as lame as you think. The first tweetup (129) that could be done. #STS135 #NASATweetup #wishfulthinking #rookie #
@GoodGadd after that they let us drive straight to that VAB which is in the heart of the base #STS135 #NASATweetup #wishfulthinking #rookie #
@celticfeminist farbeit for me to dissuade a SLR purchase but there will be plenty of cool pictures available for memories #NASATweetup #
@GoodGadd and i have to say .. there is something #spacegeek spiritual about driving up to the VAB. #STS135 #NASATweetup #
made appointments to visit 3 customers so some of my #STS135 trip can be a business expense #
@DrVonBraun the B-36 stands out as a plane i'd like to see but not sure a trip to NE for that is going to happen thanks for scouting! #
@wicho just wait till you drive straight up to it! #
working on the Atlantis or bust bus gameplan #sts135 #
@SprocketeersOrg good words i hope! #SCTweetup #
@spionchen we aren't judging you (sorta ) #
@KelleyApril its a good decision! #
@adcunningham I hit my limit after i attended #JPLOpen so i'm a #FlickrPro too #atlantis135 #sts135 #nasatweetup #
@DrVonBraun I'm Indianapolis based so i need to trek over to Dayton to see it. Wanna do a tweetup out there? #

@spionchen wow .. glad they found that now #STS135 #
@BeOurGuestMike I'm a little jealous. I love Epcot! #
@Launchchaser Wikipedia has the STS127 scrubs as problems with the GUCP . 5 attempts b4 launching wow! #
@Launchchaser wish i had that problem of them flowing together Hope its something they caught early enough. #
@LusciousBakery @abrocket i'm only a partial space camp alum nerd at this point. Hope to the adult program soon tho! #
@RebeccaKaz most likely if the date gets moved out this far out, both #nasatweetup dates will move with it. #
@robertgoodwin sweeeeeeeeeeett! #STS135 #
Met a telephone tech today that worked out at Edwards during the early '90s. Saw some shuttle landings #nasatweetup #
MT @SpaceCampUSA: Reminder last day to register for the 2nd #SCTweetup ! It is shaping up to be another amazing event! http://ow.ly/5iMoJ #
@janellewilson are you in your jumpsuit this morning? #edSpaceCamp #
@JonathanESmith well thats going to be confusing #isc2011 #
@janellewilson going commando is discouraged? #edSpaceCamp #
@janellewilson I was wondering if you made it over yet. Can't wait to welcome you to the 3 SatV club! #edSpaceCamp @DrVonBraun #
@bethejustin @janellewilson @DrVonBraun there should be. We'll have to figure out a handshake or something #
*wave bye* RT @CourtOConnor: Today @MarsCuriosity makes her final on-camera appearance before leaving @NASAJPL.Watch live now: bit.ly/dd67TN #
@bethejustin Google 'Apollo 19 -conspiracynuts' #
@bethejustin @janellewilson an Apollo 18, 19, 20 mission logos t-shirt is a great idea. NASA should get a foursquare badge for it too #
@anthonyfitch get the taste with the tweetup! #
That is an awesome nickname! RT @janellewilson: Evidently my @SpaceCampUSA nickname is Tweet. #edSpaceCamp #
@janellewilson have they shown off the pathfinder shuttle stack yet? It has engines from STS-1 #
@SpaceCampUSA I'm already plotting and planning to become and official spacecamp alum #SCTweetup #
@KelleyApril not a problem. Have at it #SCTweetup #
@spionchen whats life without drama! (I hope the drama comes down a little for ya .. it's draining) #
@KelleyApril @SpaceCampUSA @glancz @SprocketeersOrg I think that would be an awesome plan! #SCTweetup #
@janellewilson Pilot has to do a lot of work on launch, cmdr get to fly home. mission specialist suit up and float around #edSpaceCamp #
@janellewilson my position was in the orbiter so i can't really speak for the mission control jobs. #edSpaceCamp #
any help? RT @janellewilson: We get to pick our top two picks for our two missions. Any suggestions? #edSpaceCamp http://yfrog.com/kj6hwanj #
@SpaceCampUSA go down and visit @janellewilson! #
@KelleyApril Very good read. Can't wait for day .. err .. part 2 #SCTweetup #
@DeborahHerman Good Score! its only one notch down on a serveral notch belt. Its gonna rock from the causeway #nasatweetup #megaexcited #
@heathernaut88 nice. I want to see that on my big screen tv #SVC #
@heathernaut88 if i was closer to Jacksonville i'd be all over it #

@heathernaut88 @DrThomasHo I can mail you some this winter #
@janellewilson wait till you go spacesuiting Its even hotter i hear #edSpaceCamp #
@DrThomasHo Yep .. @NickiLaycoax lives just down the road. #

@grundmaster You don't need tickets to see a launch #sts135 #nasatweetup #NASA #
I'm Joe from Indiana, i've seen STS-126 from KSCVC and STS-132 as part of the nasatweetup #svptweetup #

@glancz @KelleyApril @txflygirl @scienceesl @swglasspit @brentdanley we actually saw gators in the turning pond behind the clock at STS132 #
#svptweetup RT @ChaseClark: @ChrisAstro For SpaceView Park on launch day? I suggest 5 a.m. the day before. Or earlier. #
i'm happy to help with questions. Depending the the timing we'd be happy to meetup the day before
#svptweetup #
not sure we are going to be a space view park for the launch however #svptweetup #
@ChaseClark the panhandle is pretty sweet tho #
@ChaseClark haha .. my uncle moved from Navarre to Orlando with the same cold excuse! #
make sure you don't see the launch only through your camera lense #svptweetup #
@shimpster #SVPTweetup #NASATweetup yep! There will be professionals taking shots so don't miss your moment with the eyeballs. #
#svptweetup 'ers have more fun #
Adobe Lightroom meet @JoeCLucas , @JoeCLucas , Adobe Lightroom #
There's never enough pictures of the people at these things #nasastweetup #svptweetup #

Joe Lucas — Sun, 12 Jun 2011 09:15:00 +0000

Can't wait to here your space camp tales. I'm jealous you get the full program! RT @janellewilson: 10 days until I leave for @SpaceCampUSA! #
@maroonspace I need to get over to the Air Force Museum. Enjoy your time there today #
@janellewilson See if @SpaceCampUSA will get you some sim time and you could take the controls at the CAP! #
Important thoughts for all the teachers RT @MarkRiffey: .@21stprincipal The tech leader post – good, good stuff. http://bit.ly/kjspcq #
Big Problem! RT @21stprincipal: @Shabd So many educators purchase products due to sales pitches rather than logic sometimes. #
Astronaut Hoot Gibson! Awesome Guy! http://is.gd/oWJ7ox @MarkRiffey: @JoeCLucas I assume thats a NASA dude in your new avatar? #
@KelleyApril @SprocketeersOrg ditto .. use anything you want. I've got more going up as well #
@maroonspace now i'm totally going to go. How long will you be at @nasa_glenn? We are going to do the tour one of these days. #
@schierholz complaining about bad experiences is the only way to get them fixed. @americanair should pay attention #
Truth in advertising RT @cobaltjacket: The Naperville Kite Festival has lots of kites. Go figure. #
@cobaltjacket every journey begins with a first step! #
Love seeing the #JPLTweetup folks check in from their airports as they slowly converge on Pasadena. #nasatweetiup #
Love seeing the #JPLTweetup folks check in from their airports as they slowly converge on Pasadena. #nasatweetup #
@radio_mike woot! Are you representing Indy at #JPTweetup We did our part at the #JPLOpen last month #
@KevinABarnes I so want to visit Griffith Observatory. We ran out of time when we flew out for #JPLOpen #
@ScionBoo *sad* it was bound to happen at some point. Have a safe trip back home #SCTweetup #
I'm in! RT @ScionBoo: Tweeps, cherish these last two hours of #SCTweetup and begin planning stage of #SCRetweetup #
I have failed miserably in my goal for this weekend to get my inbox to zero #
@shimpster Good choice! #nationaltreasure #
@KelleyApril with all the tweetups i've done this year i had to go pro recently #
Yes please! RT @Pillownaut: @Astroguyz We will try to make it come alive for you with pics and video!! #NASATweetup #JPLtweetup #
@ChrisAstro My company has some parts on the CERN collider Something i'm very proud of (we are not a science oriented company at all) #
@Pillownaut 400 miles! Thats some dedication to the #nasatweetup cause Get some sleep. You'll need it. #
@Pillownaut down 101? I did that once .. its slow going (but pretty). California is a loooonng state. You are driving across country? #
@Joi_the_Artist @ageekmom Love when the #nasatweetup community expands. #
@ageekmom @Joi_the_Artist it completely does hit the heart and makes me smile. @NASATweetup has tapped into something real special #
@Pillownaut swing through Indy on the way and i'll buy you a coffee We are planning to road trip ourselves actually #AtlantisIsWorthIt #
@TheSuss they are waiting for you! #NASATweetup #
@Pillownaut you bet. Now gets some rest .. long cool day tomorrow (and remember to tweet a lot!) #
Looking forward to the flood of tweets from the #JPLTweetup folks. Have a blast today. @NASAJPL is a very cool place. #nasatweetup #
@radio_mike have a blast today @NASAJPL! #JPLTweetup #
so far 4 of us have posted 618 #sctweeup pictures on flickr! @SpaceCampUSA #
@ChaseClark One of my best memories was watching the Blue Angels end of the year show from Fort Pickens. #
@DanRigsby don't forget the #JPLTweetup happening right now as well. Info overload today #wwdc #e3 #
@nasajpl @VeronicaMcG say hi to @radio_mike. He's representing Indiana on this trip! #
@SprocketeersOrg I'm not sure that DDDDDD.. properly conveys the awesomeness that was #SCTweetup #
It'll take NASA dawn 4 days to go from 0 – 60 mph #
@spionchen doesn't the turtle always win the race ? #
@bethejustin its no good until its their idea #ios5 #
@spionchen you aren't on iphone 4 yet? I'd wait personally. Unless you have a 3G. #
the #jpltweetup program has been awesome so far! (and this is from a remote watcher) #
Genuine Rockstar RT @Joi_the_Artist: Whoa! John Casani is here, and he has worked at JPL since 1956!! BEFORE NASA! #NASATweetup #JPLtweetup #
@spionchen if you can stand to wait I'd hold off till you see the i5 hardware ESP since iOS 5 will work on the GS #
@travelermom sounds like an excellent choice they have made #SCTweetup #
@genejm29 Oliver is a fighter! #
Was on the wait list but now notified that i'm officially declined for #pilotday11 At least i had #sctweetup #
@glancz hopefully the Soyuz pig doesn't get lost in a swamp #BTS1 style #
@glancz @ageekmom also there were 13 attendees that made the event in the final account http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NASA_Tweetup #
@ageekmom @glancz this is probably the best overall summary published so far: http://sprock.me/jGPlHR @SprocketeersOrg #sctweetup #
WOW indeed! RT @ChrisAstro: WOW! RT @Camilla_SDO: Cupola with the vehicle that got it there on #STS133 http://twitpic.com/58gxea #
@KelleyApril telling tales of 'there was this day i was out in the cargo bay repairing a satellite'? #SCTweetup #
@jonverve @ageekmom thanks to both of you for stewarding .. the wiki #nasatweetup page is a great resource. #
Very good article on MS's new UI RT @Pete_Brown: I love the pic of the three metro-styled UIs in Paul's article here http://bit.ly/my9LXa #
@schierholz let @NASADryden know we really really want a #Dryden tweetup! #
@schierholz as a NASA geek everything! flight line, Operations mgmt, talk to folks doing the work, i'd love to hear about the flt research #
@schierholz i think an aviation oriented/flight research theme would set it apart #
@ageekmom @SprocketeersOrg kinda cool that Alabama has taken that on. Probably thanks to the power of @DrVonBraun but very cool #
@bethejustin @schierholz that would be cool nasatweetup event item .. a sonic boom for the folks! #
thought it was just me RT @SprocketeersOrg: #SCTweetup folks – Guess what I discovered yesterday- Tweetup is more fun than work! #Justsayin #
@schierholz the side shot really puts it perspective how big a vehicle the shuttle is #spacetweeps #
Have now added the 13 ISS/Endeavour picts to my computer background picture rotation. #
trying out the metrotwit twitter client. It uses the metro windows phone UI look. I like it. #
Love that @NASAJPL had hardware out on the tables for the #JPLTweetup folks to play with. I wish i could have touched some hardware! #
@viewport the old 'so thats what those guys do'! I was watching the visuals over ustream and wondering if i was seeing your work. #
@viewport now you are just teasing me @selucas and I hope to make it back to #JPLOpen next year. We had such a good time mtg folks #
@BeOurGuestMike I'll be on the ustream. Have fun on the program today! #
@Camilla_SDO You need a chicken #beakcam so we can join in on the #SOFIAGoodness #NASATweetup #
@KelleyApril We are in the same heat bubble here in Indy. Freakin' hot out there. #
You're On SOFIA .. amazing! RT @henningkrause: Within the @SOFIAtelescope: @Pillonaut http://twitpic.com/58sw8d #NASAtweetup #
We're famous! RT @robertgoodwin: .@SpaceCampUSA #SCTweetup attendees featured in this week's Marshall Star: http://1.usa.gov/mgQJbn #
RT @Joi_the_Artist #STS133 #STS134 #NASAtweetup alumni, check your email! Now you see why the #SchierholzFanClub hashtag exists. #
What an amazing demonstration of integrity by #NASAtweetup crew to try to tie up things left undone. They didn't have to do this. Impressed #
@txflygirl giving the folks that missed their tweetup launched a chance to see #StS135 #
@travelermom Excellent post I am having problems seeing all the pictures but the first. Not sure if thats on my end or not. #sctweetup #
@travelermom picts are working now. Good job on the writeup! #
@janellewilson Its almost like you are counting down the days! You are going to have such a blast. #
Everybody LIMBO! This is as good a use for old monitors as i can think of: http://chzb.gr/izrSUD #
Love this line @Joi_the_Artist: ' Fellow Tweeps can go from strangers to close friends in the course of a weekend.' #nasatweetup #sctweetup #
@Joi_the_Artist totally agree. I love the community building aspect. Its quite remarkable this social media thing. #NASATweetup #
@janellewilson @sciencenate I like #eduSC .. nice and short #SCTweetup #
@ageekmom @heathernaut88 I think @MarsCuriosity is a natural for a launch #nasatweetup #NASA #
@bethejustin You just have to give in to the Mouse(tm) and spend it. #
@bethejustin @glancz its the happiest place on Earth! (after shuttle launch from press site) #
@ageekmom @schierholz "Each meeting results in more tasks to do, & less time to do them in!" i think thats a universal constant! #
@ageekmom @heathernaut88 @robertbl22 I'm probably both #spacegeek and #spacetweep (and serial #nasatweetup signerupper) #space #
@SpaceCampUSA woot! #NASATweetup #SCTweetup #SpaceRocks #
@janellewilson @glancz @spacecampusa They've got a dinosaur there too. #
@ChrisAstro or dust on the lense #
@KelleyApril Happy writing on the blog, i need to get to mine too #SCTweetup #
Good luck to the all the prospective #nasatweetup attendees today. May that golden email be headed to your inbox today #
Nice! RT @elcardenas: Speaking to a local school about my experiences at #nasatweetup and sharing photos from Kennedy Space Center. #
@TheSuss @heathernaut88 @caseyomaha and there are going to be a lot of us there hanging about #NASATweetup #spacetweeps #
@glancz You are going to drive yourself bonkers today #
Liftoff time goes really fast when you are trying to throw switches in a shuttle simulator @SpaceCampUSA right @cmilesbaker? #sctweetup #
@KelleyApril @ChrisAstro autoincorrect! #
@SWGlassPit Good Luck! #NASATweetup #
@bethejustin @adcunningham apparently some have already received vistor center tix emails so i don't have a good feeling that i have a shot #
esp from press site .. wow! RT @SprocketeersOrg: *edit* – I can't imagine what the Saturn V looked like #
@bethejustin @adcunningham thats my backup plan from the north side. Think i'm going to have to camp out early for this one #
@Astro_MissBaker The Saturn V doesn't liftoff .. it pushes the planet away #
@mikek45 #Purdue is pretty well represented too #astronaut #MIT #ISS #nasatweetup #
@Astro_MissBaker haha .. have you ever seen @DrVonBraun and I in the same room together! #
@Catahouligan I'll be in contact #
@KelleyApril YES! Its an awesome experience #NASATweeetup #STS135 #
So apparently the emails have started to arrive #nasatweetup #
Estatic that #sctweetup will be sending a representative to #STS135 #nasatweetup #
@CaseyOmaha slots do open up so you still got a chance #NASATweetup #
@glancz our own @KelleyApril is IN! #
will have to wait to get home to see if @selucas made it in #nasatweetup #
@KelleyApril You'll see it as @DrVonBraun intended. Close enough to feel the rattle #NASATweetup #STS135 #
@spionchen WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOTTT! #STS135 #NASATweetup #
Nice to see that #JSCTweetup #STS130 will be represented at #STS135 #nasastweetup .. congrats @spionchen #
@tinacan25 Congrats! #NASATweetup #STS135 #
@shimpster Wooho! #STS135 #nasatweetup #
@sciencegoddess you can still scream. They'll understand #STS135 #NASATweetup #
@heathernaut88 Congrats! Amazing time awaits #STS135 #
@spionchen We will be at the launch regardless so we'll see you. Hope to make the BBQ. So glad you made it in. #
@heathernaut88 Looking forward to meeting you after you've seen a launch from the press site! #NASAtweetup #STS135 #
ditto! RT @janellewilson: I'm excited to see so many people I know here are selected for the #NASATweetup Congrats to you #
@bethejustin You and me both #NASATweetup #stst135 #

Haha. Some old guy lied about having a back injury to get on plane first which disqualified him from his exit row seat on a full flight #
First row in an A320. Hello legroom #
@VeronicaMcG @selucas @nasajpl what a fun trip. Medicating with lots of napping. Finally made it home 12 hrs later than plan. #JPLopen #
@marsroverdriver @ageekmom you have to attend #JPLopen next year. Science geekness overload. #
@ageekmom plan both days .. i could have spent the whole day talking to the JPL folks in the Journey Through the Solar System. #
@ageekmom I got to talk to the Voyager Operations Manger in that exhibit. I'm still in awe #JPLOpen @NASAJPL #
I think i got a pic of a data link being received from Voyager in the Ops center! #JPLOpen #photoreview http://yfrog.com/gzjhdaoj #
@gryphonmetal congrats! You are going to have a blast! @NASAJPL #NASATweetup #
@janellewilson i got 2 education program contacts for you from #JPLOpen #
@SpaceCampUSA is the rescheduled #SCTweetup going to have a similar schedule, ie starting at 5ish on Thursday? #
@shupp so what did you think of #JPLOpen We had an awesome time. #
Yes! RT @SpaceCampUSA: Yeah finally a list @SpaceCampUSA/sctweetup – be sure to add yourself if i missed someone #
@SpaceCampUSA Looks like i need to be added to the list unless you know something i don't #

@spionchen @raen425 the cats will get over it #
Awesome that @NASA found the space to do a launch #Nasatweetup for #STS135 Great work @schierholz and @bethbeck ! #
@KelleyApril @glancz @txflygirl do you guys have a time in mind for the museum tour? I think i can be there in time #SCTweetup #

@spionchen I'll be in Phoenix tomorrow! (for about 35 minutes) #
@spionchen can't extend it this time .. we need to get over to #JPLOpen to @MarsCuriosity. We'll make it to PHX one of these days #
@genejm29 I'm available if you need someone to carry some equipment. I work cheap! #tryingtogetintoSTS135 #

nice capture! RT @shimpster: I just ousted Peter D. as the mayor of Launch Pad 39 Observation Gantry on @foursquare! http://is.gd/mPFK0s #
@nasanborn as a veteran of #jsctweetup #Amestweetup and #GoddardTweetup .. They are a ton more than 1/4 as good #JPLtweetup #NASATweetup #
@FlyingPhotog not true .. #sts132 Atlantis went off on schedule too #nasatweetup #
@ageekmom @flyingphotog She's my girl! #NASAtweetup #
@cswriter haha .. not quite as impressive as you were led to believe #NASATweetup #
sad for me but much clearer #sts132 RT @NASATweetup: To clarify: return for launch for those who were cleared for #sts134 #NASATweetup only. #
@imillis its still in the air. Apparently viewing space will be a premium for last launch #NASATweetup #
@brananc congrats on landing a new position! #
