HOUSTON – NASA’s Johnson Space Center will be closed Tuesday due to the expected conditions caused by the winter storm. Center leadership will continue to monitor the situation to determine the reopening time on Wednesday.
The closing allows JSC employees to avoid treacherous road conditions. Temperatures in the area are predicted to be below freezing on Tuesday, and roadways are expected to be icy.
Flight control of the International Space Station will continue from Houston and the Space Station Mission Control Center at JSC will remain open during this period.
Center employees should check with JSC Emergency Management website, www.jscsos.com, for up-to-date information on the status of the center. Those without internet access can call 281-483-3351.
