| Media Release LIVING IN SPACE Don Pettit’s address for almost six months last year was c/o International Space Station, Expedition 6. He was the Flight Engineer and Science Officer onboard the orbital outpost, where he successfully completed two space walks. He was onboard during the space shuttle Columbia accident in February, 2003, which meant his stay was delayed another two months. Don is currently training for another mission to the International Space Station, probably for 2005. The Institution of Professional Engineers New Zealand (IPENZ) is fortunate to host this free lunchtime lecture, where the public can hear about life at NASA, living in space, and what makes engineering important to space programmes.
