		Edward Tsang Lu (Simplified Chinese: 卢杰; Traditional Chinese: 盧傑; pinyin: Lú Jié) (born July 1, 1963) is an American physicist and astronaut, a veteran of two space shuttle missions and an extended stay aboard the International Space Station.
		Raised in Webster, New York, Lu earned a degree in electrical engineering from Cornell University and a doctoral degree in applied physics from Stanford University in 1989.
		Lu spent six months in space in 2003 as part of ISS Expedition 7, with cosmonaut Yuri Malenchenko.

	Astronaut Bio: Edward Tsang Lu 6/04
		Lu has developed a number of new theoretical advances, which have provided for the first time a basic understanding of the underlying physics of solar flares.
		Lu flew as a mission specialist on STS-84 in 1997, was a mission specialist and payload commander on STS-106 in 2000, flight engineer on Soyuz TMA-2 and served as NASA ISS Science Officer and flight engineer on ISS Expedition-7 in 2003.
		Lu was the first American to launch as the Flight Engineer of a Soyuz spacecraft, and the first American to launch and land on a Soyuz spacecraft (Soyuz TMA-2).

	Ed Lu gives Olin lecture
		Lu recalled witnessing, from his perch in space, flashes caused by grains of dust smashing into the atmosphere 1,000 miles away, making him acutely aware of the power of rocky bodies in the Earth's path.
		Lu, together with other astronauts, scientists and engineers, is urging NASA to use this technology to actually try to move an asteroid before the critical need arises.
		Lu might have seen flashes of distant dust from space, but, ironically, he had a difficult time seeing the Cornell campus, from which he graduated with a bachelor of science degree in electrical engineering.

	Astronaut Lu speaks with students
		Lu, who graduated from Cornell in 1984 with a degree in electrical engineering, has been aboard the space station since April and is expected to return to Earth in late October.
		Lu replied, "I read you loud and clear." Then Kent Fuchs, dean of Cornell's engineering college, expressed greetings from the university, and he was followed by the lineup of questioners.
		Lu graduated from R.L. Thomas High School in Webster, N.Y., in 1980, and at Cornell, he was a Merrill Presidential Scholar and a member of the Big Red wrestling team.

		Lu had what he calls a comfortable life in Hawaii and was reasonably well known in his field.
		Lu had aviation experience, and had been flying since he was 17 years old but nothing could prepare him for “the kind of things that you do in the space program,” he says.

	The Universe Today - High Flier
		Lu says, "The crew member in the minority is always going to have to deal with this - it will be harder on this person than the others." He's not anticipating a problem however, having trained and worked with Russian cosmonauts in the past, and been a member of a largely international crew on STS-84.
		Lu describes the technique as "sort of like the way a rock climber might move who is putting up ropes at various places." It is slower than the 'sliding wire' method, requiring the spacewalkers to take their tools and equipment with them, like "pack mules."
		Ed Lu says that building the Space Station is "an unbelievably important step" on the road to going "further in space than we're doing right now," because it will allow ongoing testing and development of the technology needed to achieve this goal.

		Lu explained that he was involved in a variety of experiments ranging from basic physics to tests involving human health such as the improving exercise regimes to reduce bone loss.
		Carl Franck, physics also asked a question related to Lu's experience: "What is the coolest tool you use up there and why is it your favorite?" Lu responded by describing a complex electrical drill that offers an enormous statistical output and a four foot long screw driver used to reach difficult to reach screws.
		Lu explained that the dust outside the shuttle can sometimes be seen through the window when the sun shines on the station.
