Astronaut held in jail for attempted murder

Police filed attempted murder charges against a US astronaut accused of trying to kidnap a woman she considered a rival for another astronaut's affections, preventing her release from jail on Tuesday.
A judge had granted bail for astronaut Lisa Nowak, who was arrested on Monday on charges including battery and attempted kidnapping, according to police in Orlando, Florida, US. But shortly before she was to be released, police filed the more serious charge of attempted first-degree murder, halting her release.
Nowak, 43, told police she drove from Houston, Texas, to the Orlando International Airport to confront Colleen Shipman, whom Nowak considered a rival for the attentions of fellow astronaut Bill Oefelein (pictured below right), the police affidavit said. The astronaut had disguised herself in a dark wig, glasses and a trench coat.
Nowak, a married flight engineer with three children, was awaiting her next flight assignment after travelling aboard the shuttle Discovery in July 2006 (see Shuttle blasts into orbit on third try).
Oefelein was part of a separate shuttle Discovery mission in December that continued construction on the International Space Station. The Orlando Sentinel described Shipman as a captain in the US Air Force assigned to the 45th Launch Support Squadron at Patrick Air Force Base, near Florida's Kennedy Space Center.

Well Astronauts are just human,..

**wiweimeli** · 07-02-2007, 05:10 PM

I honestly believe something happened to her on her travel to the ISS...

It's a government conspiracy I tell you...

Exactly.
I don't get why the hell this has taken up the media. Who the **** cares? Don't they have anything else more important to report about?
The novel, "The Scarlet Letter" comes into mind here, and I don't think these journalists have read it. [rolleyes]

Meh... It's just a PR-stunt to bring back some interest in the space program.
