STS-99 Commander Kregel poses with EARTHKAM camera on OV-105's flight deck

STS099-314-035 (11-22 February 2000) ---Astronaut Kevin R. Kregel, mission commander, works with camera equipment, which was used for the EarthKAM project. The camera stayed busy throughout the 11-day mission taking vertical imagery of the Earth points of opportunity for the project. Students across the United States and in France, Germany and Japan took photos throughout the STS-99 mission. And they are using these new photos, plus all the images already available in the EarthKAM system, to enhance their classroom learning in Earth and space science, social studies, geography, mathematics and more.
