Astronaut's Twittering

Just for those interested in Space and Astronauts,
2 Active Astronauts are delving in to using twitter to kinda have you follow there daily progress,

It started when an astronaut thought it would be fun to send a twitter from space to keep his followers updated, They also do a live question and answer session via the NASA Gov site picking out your questions to him on the twitter feed,

Nice post, yes i had read about them twittering from space and found it very odd. Was allowing him to twitter a test or was it just nasa relaxing on various protocols.

The twitterings are probably going to be heavily filtered and planted like some of the twitters during the G-20 protests.

I wouldn't be surprised if there was a long delay like they (the twitter texts) were going through a second party before it would get through to the first parties.
