PUTRAJAYA, Oct 14 (Bernama) -- A transmission hitch prevented Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi from teleconferencing tonight with the first Malaysian in space.
The prime minister expressed disappointment for not being able to talk with Dr Sheikh Muszaphar Shukor Sheikh Mustapha, who is in the International Space Station (ISS), at the scheduled time of 8.20pm.
Dr Sheikh Muszaphar, 35, lifted off into space on October 10 along with American Commander Peggy Whitson and Russian Flight Engineer Yuri Malenchenko from the Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan to become the first Malaysian in space.
Their spacecraft, Soyuz TMA-11, docked with the ISS on Friday and the three astronauts entered the ISS.
