NASA TweetUp at STS-128 Launch

“NASA, which has tiptoed into the new world of social media with Twittering astronauts and Facebooking rovers, is taking the next step with an invitation-only outreach to “the twedia” to cover a space shuttle launch. There are so many details to work out that the so-called TweetUp, originally planned for next week’s launch of space shuttle Endeavour, has been rescheduled for the August flight of shuttle Discovery, said Michael Cabbage, a spokesman for the U.S. space agency.”
