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 #

@ctokoku Congratulations! #STS135 #STS135 #NASATweetup #

@WinObs I think i'm going to have to run my tix plea on a 1 hour repeater for a while #Nasatweetup #
@JonathanESmith about an hour drive if i remember #pilotday11 #
@VAXHeadroom Great news! #NASATweetup #sts135 #numb #
@WinObs @ageekmom @anthonyfitch @theroamingnome @JonathanESmith Rock, Paper, Scissors, Lizard, Spock #
@glancz #NASATweetup #
@bethejustin @KelleyApril @chuck_kesler were you on my bus because I was on the cool one #sts132 #coolbus #NASATweetup #
Taking @selucas to @CRG_Mesh to get over the sadness of not getting the #nasastweetup selection. This is going to cost me #
@Catahouligan don't tell anybody your spots! #sts135 #nasatweetup #
Keep an eye out @SpaceCampUSA #sctweetup opportunity on Monday. Its a blast of a time! #
@tinacan25 @CatherineQ Only if they are interested celebs like the previous group was. No self-important douchebags. #
Amish Chicken (@ Mesh) http://picplz.com/5cNZ #
@txflygirl @KelleyApril @SpaceUpConf yes! I could make one in Cleveland. #
Congrats! @rachel7295: Happy Anniversary to us! (@ Cheeseburger In Paradise) http://j.mp/kY8rou #
@ChrisAstro @selucas and I will be there #
@ChrisAstro yep. A lot of us #JSCtweetup folks will be back together! #
This is pricey. Hope it's tasty. Will let you know #bacon (@ Whole Foods Market) http://picplz.com/5KVQ #
@raen425 Purdue was pretty much like that. Tho I never got to ice skate in the halls. I love that move #RealGenius #
@KTVee I just went throught the first #SCTweetup It was awesome. You have to do it. Here's some picts: http://flic.kr/g/fD23Z #
@ScionBoo Get to the uploading! #
@KelleyApril are you looking in Orlando? #STS135 #
@KelleyApril I probably should go ahead and grab one myself. The only problem with orlando is post launch traffic. Hrs & hrs to get back #
Riding some laps at the Indy 500 for Tour De Cure today http://twitpic.com/5a37rb #
I just ousted Paul D. as the mayor of La Bamba on @foursquare! http://4sq.com/7L11N2 #
Plotting my return to the space coast to see #STS135 do its thing #
@ChrisAstro the time zone changes coast to coast really get you. #
will do! RT @JL_Davis: @JoeCLucas do it!!! @svptweetup is an alumni group setting up a tweetup to watch #
@travelermom I think i'd rather stick with the multi-axis chair How high is the zipline? #treetoptweetup #
Love this recap RT @rindsay: My @NASAJPL @NASATweetup blog post is up! http://bit.ly/lDcxOe #NASAtweetup #JPLtweetup #
Moving 100 GB of photos from drive A to drive B #
@KelleyApril We are planning on roadtripping it. I think i'd rather fly #NASATweetup #STS135 #
@RocketScientist YES! Atlantis attracts us like bugs to light (sorry .. thats the best analogy i could come up with on the fly!) #
“So that’s how it is in their family.” RT @davidhitt: RT @washingtonpost: ‘Ferris Bueller’s Day Off’ turns 25 today http://is.gd/btnSj3 #
@JonathanESmith When we went to #SED2011 tweetup we flew into BWI and drove over to Udvar. All interstate but the very last. #
@txflygirl Very interesting discussion. I was soaking it in and have some things i'll put into an email #spacepoints #spaceup #
@ageekmom @VAXHeadroom is in #
@ageekmom @VAXHeadroom hehehe I rode a bus with VAX at #SED2011 so i have to say i'm a fan #SpaceTweep #
@jonverve I've got a couple of thoughts i'll be emailing your way based on the discussion #spacepoints #
install thinkUp server. It mostly works. #
@bethejustin I'm getting tweets into the thing but it shows an error while sucking them in. Will have to do playing i think #
@bethejustin I think thats where i'm having problems, the OAUTH stuff. It imports a bunch each run. I'm back to March 2011 so far #
haha .. there's goes ur productivity RT @WinObs: Ok Angry Birds for Windows is quite addicting! I now get it #
@bethejustin I'm at 3400 so i started just in time #
@bethejustin I hear the library of congress has all the tweets I have had them post to my blog since 2009 so i might even have that 200 #
@bethejustin but thinkup is much better. Analysis is a cool thing #
@bethejustin yep .. its stupid You'll get them someday i think #
@ageekmom @genejm29 I've been in the room with 3 of them. Hopefully i can meet @thenasaman at #STS135 to complete the set #Idontbelieveya #
my tweet from 16MAY2010: "same here .. i've met 75% of the talking space crew after this tweetup! 100% is no… (cont) http://deck.ly/~hY4am #
@Astroholic007 both before and after. You'll make some lifelong friends from the experience #nasatweetup #sts135 #
Approp the first tweet that twitter shows for me (some scrolled off the list) is 'Launch' watching STS126 live http://yfrog.com/h2mz7owj #
Here is the video I took of #STS126 launching at night. We were at the visitors center: http://youtu.be/QPZejeWgJbU #
