MEDIA ACCREDITATION OPEN FOR NASA'S MARS SCIENCE LAB LAUNCH

CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. -- Media accreditation for the launch of NASA's 
Mars Science Laboratory Curiosity rover is open. Liftoff aboard an 
Atlas V rocket from Launch Complex 41 at Cape Canaveral Air Force 
Station in Florida is targeted for Nov. 25 at 10:21 a.m. EST.

International media representatives without U.S. citizenship must 
apply for credentials by Oct. 18 because the U.S. Air Force requires 
30 days to process those requests. For U.S. journalists, the 
application deadline is Nov. 18.

All media accreditation requests must be submitted online at:

https://media.ksc.nasa.gov  

For questions about accreditation or additional information, contact 
the Press Site at NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida at 
321-867-2468.

The launch opportunity for the laboratory extends through Dec. 18. For
