Flight Engineer Clayton Anderson's Space Station Journals
Journals
Epilogue: 'I Miss You, Mom...'
On November 7, 2007, the Space Shuttle Discovery glided to a picture perfect landing at the Kennedy Space Center (KSC) near Cape Canaveral, Florida.
Prologue: 'It's All Relative... .'
I have now been back on terra firma, our home planet Earth, for about 3 months.
Chapter 13: “A Note to My Family…!”
This journal chapter will be my final one from orbit. It is a very special chapter for me as my time in this wonderful place is coming to an end.
Chapter 12: “The Hard Thump of Reality…!”
When I was about 8 years old, my parents woke my brother and sister and me up in the middle of the night, on Christmas Eve of 1968.
Chapter 11: “There’s a New Sheriff in Town…!”
I am going to miss them. Expedition 15 Commander Fyodor Yurchikhin and Soyuz Commander and Flight Engineer 1 Oleg Kotov departed the International Space Station (ISS) today for Earth.
Chapter 10: “In the Blink of an Eye…!”
Wow! It’s almost time for me to go home. Where did the time go?
Chapter 9: “Let’s Take Her Out for a Spin, Shall We?!”
How many different types of vehicles have you ridden in during your lifetime?
Chapter 8: “So Now What Do We Do?!”
No more spacewalks; no more robotic arm operations. So what do we do now? Well, that’s an easy question to answer.
Chapter 7: “Houston, ISS on Space to Ground 2…for Teamwork and 100 Days.”
I am indeed a very lucky man. Not because I am in space, living onboard the International Space Station (ISS), whizzing around our beautiful planet at 17,500 miles an hour and enjoying the views of a lifetime.
Chapter 6: 'Must You Go…Can’t You Stay Just a Little Bit Longer???'
I miss them already… the crew of STS-118 and the beautiful ship Endeavour.
Chapter 5: “Visitors…From Another Planet!!!”
I don’t think that I ever could have imagined that I would have been living off of the Planet Earth for almost 2 months!
Chapter 4: 'Please Put Your Boots on Before You Go Outside…!'
As a youngster, I recall those winter days back in Nebraska when we wanted to go outside and play in the snow.
Chapter 3: “I’ll Take World Geography for $2000, Alex…!”
My mission elapsed time (MET) is now 31 days and climbing! Can you believe it? I have now been living 'off the planet' for over one month!
Chapter 2: “So What is it Like…Really???”
One of my ground-based journal chapters speculated on what life in space might really be like. At that time, I honestly had no idea, but I promised my dedicated readers that I would find out…and soon!
Chapter 1: '…And Then There Were Three!'
Wow! I can’t believe it…here I am, safely on orbit, living onboard the International Space Station. The last eleven days have seemed like a Category 5 hurricane to me.
- Because world politics change from year to year, you can expect your Geography course content to vary from year to year. During the Iran-Contra hearings, Nicaragua was a big topic of interest. Recently, thanks to Hugo Chavez, Venezuela has become a popular country to study. And of course, let's not forget the Arab Spring.

- January 20, 2021 jim clayton There aren’t many things I remember from Geography class, but one of them is the oxbow lake. It’s that thing that happens when a river meander gets loopier and crazier until the river nips it off at the top and leaves it to one side as a curved body of water.
