With the upcoming space shuttle missions continuing construction on the International Space Station and to provide maintenance to the Hubble Space Telescope, the importance of spacewalks and the reliance on spacesuits are taking center stage. To help educators share these topics with their students, NASA Education has unveiled a new Web site.
