ME-2 heading back to earth
ME-2 is heading back for earth. After nearly 1.5 week in Lunar orbit, they are finally going home. They delivered the first truss segment to the MSSEU. The astronauts also performed 3 EVA walks. 2 to bold the whole station together and another one to setup a network connection between all the modules.

Ares 1 arrives at wide awake
The segments of the Ares 1 have arrived at WideAwake. Ares 1 will carry the Orion capsule to space. The segments are being stored in the big hangar that HASA owns at WideAwake, before they will move to the VAB for assembly.
Albatross arrived at the Cape
The Albatross is flown to the Cape aboard of a Boeing 747-400F. Now it can go through the final phases of processing and then it can be placed atop of the Delta 2.
ME-3 getting ready for flight
Moon Expedition 3 is getting ready for its flight to the MSSEU. It will deliver 2 new truss segments. At the ends of these segments will come the new solar panels. ME-3 will also place Hi-res cameras on the outside of the MSSEU. These will photograph the lunar surface for future missions to the moon.
