SPACE STATION COMMANDER GUIDES NEW HD TOUR OF COMPLEX

HOUSTON -- Expedition 18 Commander Mike Fincke, aboard the
International Space Station with Flight Engineers Sandy Magnus and
Yury Lonchakov, recently filmed a high-definition tour of the
orbiting complex. The 35-minute tour will air as a special Video File
on NASA Television's HD Channel 105 at 1 p.m. and 3 p.m. CST Thursday
and Friday.

The special Video File also will be broadcast in standard-definition
on NASA TV immediately following the regularly scheduled daily Video
File broadcasts. For technical information on how to receive the
special broadcast in high definition, and for NASA TV streaming

With a mass of almost 630,000 pounds, the station has grown to a size
larger than an average four-bedroom house on Earth. The next space
shuttle mission, designated STS-119, will continue the station's
assembly by delivering a fourth and final set of solar arrays.
Shuttle Discovery and its seven-member crew are targeted to launch
Feb. 12.
