"AN ARTICLE OF HOPE" - HQ
=================================
Charles Bolden:
"This movie is incredible in that it articulates so effectively through the medium of film."
To help mark NASA’s Day of Remembrance, Administrator Charlie Bolden hosted a special screening of the documentary “An Article of Hope” in the Headquarters auditorium. The hour-long film chronicles the journey of a tiny Torah scroll beginning with its rescue from a German World War II concentration camp by a young Holacaust survivor. The Torah is taken to Israel where, years later, that’s country’s first astronaut, Col. Ilan Ramon, arranges to carry it into space aboard shuttle Columbia on STS-107, Ramon and his six crewmates lost their lives on that ill-fated mission on February 1, 2003.
The film’s producer, Daniel Cohen, discussed the documentary and its importance with the audience.
Daniel Cohen:
"I was able to meet Rona Ramon, Ilan’s wife, and she said to me during the meeting that of all the things written about Ilan Roman, this story would have been the story he would have wanted told. It is a powerful story; it is a story of a journey of the human spirit."

HUBBLE DISCOVERY - STSci
=====================================
NASA’s Hubble Space Telescope has discovered what astronomers believe is the most distant object ever seen in the universe. The dim object is a tiny, compact galaxy of blue stars that existed 13.2 billion years ago, roughly 150 million years farther back in time than the previous record holder. The age of the universe is 13.7 billion years.
The tiny galaxy, so small that more than a hundred similarly-sized galaxies would be needed to make up our Milky Way galaxy, was discovered by Hubble’s Wide Field Camera 3, installed in 2009 during the last space shuttle servicing mission to the telescope.
=======================
ISS UPDATE – JSC
=======================
NASA astronaut Ron Garan and his Expedition 27/28 crewmates, Russian cosmonauts Alexander Samokutyaev and Andrey Borisenko, talked with media about their upcoming mission to the International Space Station.
Ron Garan:
"Being up there for almost six month, we will have the opportunity to, eventually, when we get used to living there, when we settle into a routine there, it will become normal for us. We will not be visitors to space; we will be residents of space."
Garan, Samokutyaev and Borisenko will join Expedition 27 NASA astronaut Cady Coleman, European Space Agency astronaut Paolo Nespoli and Russian cosmonaut Dmitry Kondratyev after their launch to the station from the Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan on March 29.
Already at the ISS is the HTV. The unpiloted Japanese cargo ship completed its five-day journey to the station from the Tanegashima Space Center in southern Japan with a smooth grappling by Coleman and Nespoli using the station's robotic arm, Canadarm2. Named "Kounotori," the Japanese word for white stork, the craft carried more than four tons of food and supplies.

NASA & OPTIMUS PRIME - GSFC
============================
What do Optimus Prime and NASA have in common? More than you’d think, according to the developers of the agency-sponsored OPTIMUS PRIME video contest.
