Back in Empire for a recap of another successful mission, Endeavour shuttle pilot Greg Johnson oooed and awed his audience at the township hall on Aug. 19 with new photos and a video from his STS-134 mission in May to the International Space Station (ISS).

Fresh off NASA’s final shuttle mission in May, veteran astronaut Greg Johnson will return to the Empire Township Hall on Friday, July 19, at 3:30 p.m. to discuss his career and what’s next for NASA and space exploration. This free event is sponsored by the Glen Lake Community Library and open to all.

Area residents looking for one of the best NASA space shuttle launch viewing experiences outside of Florida’s Space Coast are invited to watch the Endeavour blast off at 8:56 a.m. Monday on the State Theatre’s huge screen, while listening to the rockets roar via a state-of-the-art sound system.
