Astronaut to Russia
Astronaut Ken Cameron, KB5AWP, has been named Director of
Operations-Russia and manager of NASA operational activities at Star
City and at the Russian control center at Kaliningrad.
He will work with Russian Space Agency engineers and flight
controllers on the US-Russia cooperative space program, including
supervising NASA astronaut training at Star City and developing
plans and procedures to support joint space shuttle-Russian Mir
space station flights and space station development.
He is expected to command one of the early shuttle docking missions
with Mir.
Cameron, 44, has flown on two SAREX shuttle flights, STS-37 in 1991
and STS-56 in 1993. Both these shuttles were "all-ham flights."
