NASA Administrator Michael Griffin, Associate Administrator for the Exploration Systems Mission Directorate Scott Horowitz and Constellation Program Manager Jeff Hanley will present the exploration program and the work being assigned to NASA centers. The media event will be held on June 5 at 2:30 p.m. at the NASA headquarters auditorium.

Those of you who can't make it can watch the news conference on the Web and NASA TV. During the briefing, reporters at participating NASA centers will have the chance to ask the three space head honchos some questions. To spice up the event reigning American Idol Taylor Hicks will perform a medley of songs with the words "space," "aliens," "rocketship," "planets," "stars" in the lyrics. We're kidding of course, just trying to spice up this article.
