Linda M Godwin quotes
" A lot of these things will fly in later forms on the space station themselves, or a later form of that research will, once they kind of find out some of the basics from flying it on shuttle. "

Linda M Godwin
" Although I know a lot of the previous shuttle flights, in theory, had their tasks laid out; but there were still some changes that came along for them. "

Linda M Godwin
" As always, we prepare for all sorts of contingencies. And the first few days of the flight up until docking on Day 3 are all spent really in the rendezvous because we launch at a time that puts us in an optimal position to catch up to station. "

Linda M Godwin
" As you're climbing around on station, you may have to do tether swaps or some double-tethering for a while, and what we're going to be doing is staying tethered to the arm. "

Linda M Godwin
" I did grow up with a really big interest in math and science; I liked it. "

Linda M Godwin
" I grew up watching a lot of the coverage of the early U.S. space program, all the way back starting with Mercury and then through Gemini and Apollo and of course going to the moon as the main part of the Apollo program. "

Linda M Godwin
" I was interested in NASA, but I never thought it was something I could do, but I imagine that it fueled an interest in the science that I had already. "

Linda M Godwin
" I'll be the person using the shuttle robotic arm. "

Linda M Godwin
" I'll grapple it with the shuttle arm, we lift it very slowly, straight up out of the bay, to kind of a low hover position, then we start moving it to high hover which moves it forward relative to the shuttle, and rotates it around a little bit and gets it positioned, ready to put it on to the Node. "

Linda M Godwin
" I'm the lead for the spacewalk using the shuttle arm, and for the transfer operations, as well as many other duties. "

Linda M Godwin
" I've been much more involved in the rendezvous training for this mission than I was on the rendezvous that we trained to do to go to Mir. "

Linda M Godwin
" In the Astronaut Office we're never totally out of training, we always keep our hand in it. But after five years, things have changed and so it's been good to get back into the flow and relearn a lot of things. "

Linda M Godwin
" It all has applications to humans, which is one of the really appealing things about doing microgravity research. "

Linda M Godwin
" It definitely helps to have been through the arm training flow before and to have used the arm on orbit, and it also gives me the confidence to know that our training facilities are really good, that when you get up there, you feel like you've been there. "

Linda M Godwin
" It is a very busy mission: every day has some major goals that we have to get through, but my experience before has been that at least in the evening, you kind of take a deep breath and look around where you are and have some downtime. "
