NASA EXPERIENCE:  Selected as a mission specialist by NASA in July 2000, Behnken reported for training in August 2000.  Following the completion of 18 months of training and evaluation, he was assigned technical duties in the Astronaut Office Shuttle Branch supporting launch and landing activities at Kennedy Space Center, Florida.  In March 2008 Behnken flew on STS-123 logging over 378 hours in space, including over 19 EVA hours in three space walks.  He is assigned to the crew of STS-130, targeted for launch in February 2010.

SPACE FLIGHT EXPERIENCE:  STS-123 Endeavour (March 11-26, 2008) was a night launch and landing.  It was the twenty-fifth Space Station assembly mission.  Endeavour’s crew delivered the first component of JAXA’s Kibo Laboratory, and the final element of the station’s Mobile Servicing System, the Canadian-built Special Purpose Dextrous Manipulator known as Dextre.  During the mission, Behnken served as Mission Specialist 1 for ascent and entry, performed three spacewalks, served as the IV (internal spacewalk coordinator), and operated both the space station robotic arm and the Dextre robot.  The mission was accomplished in 250 orbits of the Earth, traveling 6,577,857 statute miles in 15 days, 18 hours, 10 minutes and 54 seconds.
