NASA Provides Media Interviews For Space Station National Lab Award

CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. -- NASA has canceled the previously scheduled
news conference on Friday, Sept. 9, about the award of the
organization that will manage the portion of the International Space
Station operated as a U.S. national laboratory. The briefing was
canceled because the launch of the agency's GRAIL mission has been
postponed until Friday morning.

NASA will offer in-person media interview opportunities at 10 a.m. EDT
on Friday at NASA Kennedy Space Center's Press Site in Florida.
Reporters already on-site for the GRAIL launch will be able to
interview:

- Waleed Abdalati, NASA chief scientist
- Mark Uhran, assistant associate administrator for the International
Space Station
- Jeanne Becker, CASIS executive director
