HOUSTON, March 21 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- The news conference with the 10
crew members aboard space shuttle Endeavour and the International Space
Station, originally scheduled for 11:18 p.m. CDTSunday, March 23, has been
moved to an hour earlier, and will begin at 10:18 p.m.

The change in time was made to improve the downlink television capability from
the space station.

Media may ask questions from NASA's Johnson Space Center in Houston; NASA's
Kennedy Space Center in Florida; and NASA Headquarters in Washington. The
phone bridge used for after business hours briefings will not be available. A
portion of the news conference will be set aside for Japanese reporters at the
Johnson Space Center and a French radio network selected by the European Space
Agency. 

To participate in the news conference, U.S. journalists must call the public
affairs office at their preferred NASA center by 4 p.m. CDT, Friday, March 21.

NASA Television will provide live coverage of the 40-minute news conference.
