STS-133 Astronauts Train with New Crew Member
Astronaut Steve Bowen, who is replacing Tim Kopra on the crew of STS-133, trained the week of Jan. 24 with the remaining members of space shuttle Discovery's mission to the International Space Station. The training took place at the virtual reality lab, space shuttle simulator and neutral buoyancy laboratory at NASA's Johnson Space Center in Houston. Kopra was replaced when a bicycle injury suffered Jan. 15 prohibited him from meeting the mission's targeted launch of Feb. 24.
