FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE<\/p>\n

A MESSAGE FROM SPACE<\/p>\n

TEXAS SCHOOL FOR THE DEAF GETS ANSWERS FROM THE INTERNATIONAL SPACE STATION<\/strong><\/p>\n

Austin, Texas \u2013 December 13, 2010 Finally, the wait is over. The Texas
\nSchool for the Deaf has been anticipating a message from space. And today,
\nthat message arrived.<\/p>\n

While aboard the International Space Station (ISS), Astronaut Tracy Caldwell
\nDyson used American Sign Language (ASL) to respond to inquiries submitted by
\nstudents from the Texas School for the Deaf (TSD). Caldwell Dyson recorded
\nalmost an hour of video footage addressing their questions about life on the
\nISS.<\/p>\n

As a way to inspire deaf and hard of hearing students to learn more about
\nspace science, and encourage them to pursue space related careers, this
\nproject was suggested by Caldwell Dyson, and is being coordinated by Dr.
\nDavid Coco, from the Educational Resource Center on Deafness at TSD. Dr.
\nCoco, who is deaf himself, is a former NASA intern who was also involved in
\nspace physics research at the University of Texas for over 20 years. Dr.
\nCoco said, \u201cTSD students are really excited about this opportunity to work
\nwith Tracy and NASA. It gives them great exposure to explore opportunities
\nin space science.\u201d<\/p>\n

TSD students will create a series of video science lessons using the footage
\nprovided by NASA. The first released clip from the project shows Caldwell
\nDyson and the rest of the ISS crew signing a greeting along with a \u201cThank
\nYou\u201d from TSD students. This video can be viewed at:
\n http:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/multimedia\/videogallery\/index.html?media_id=30760871<\/a>.<\/p>\n

NASA released the video footage to TSD after Expedition Crew 24, including
\nFlight Engineer Caldwell Dyson, wrapped up a six-month stay aboard the ISS
\nand returned to a safe landing in Kazakhstan on September 25. Additional
\nvideo segments on a variety of different science topics from the NASA\/TSD
\npartnership will be created and posted soon on the NASA website.<\/p>\n

The Texas School for the Deaf is the oldest continuously operating public
\nschool in Texas. Educating deaf and hard of hearing students of Texas since
\n1856, the campus also provides outreach and educational resources for
\nstudents, their families and professionals in the field throughout the state
\nof Texas. With educational excellence and a strong belief in a culture and
\ncommunity at TSD, students form a unique identity based on their individual
\nstrengths and talents. TSD is an environment where students learn, grow, and
\nbelong. For more information about the Texas School for the Deaf, visit
