Atlantis Space Shuttle Launch will be Twittered Live

Space Shuttle AtlantisNASA is getting even more social media savvy: the organization is sending 100 of its Twitter followers to Cape Canaveral for tomorrow’s launch of Atlantis; NASA awarded tickets to the Tweetup to the first 100 people to register on its site. The move is an attempt to drive more interest in space exploration.

It’s not the first time NASA (@nasa on TwitterTwitterTwitter

) has leveraged the social media messaging service. The organization technically posted the first Tweets from space this May, when user @Astro_Mike sent messages to the ground to be posted to his Twitter account by NASA staff. The addition of Jeff Williams (@Astro_jeff) and Nicole Stott (@Astro_Nicole) expanded NASA’s team of tweeting astronauts.

The launch, scheduled for 2.28pm EST, is taking astronauts to the International Space Station for an 11-day mission.
