Rachael Wagner, a Husker doctoral student, awaits the next communication window with the International Space Station as she talks with NASA mission control in Huntsville, Alabama. Nebraska Engineering professor and Virtual Incision founder Shane Farritor successfully performed robotic surgery on the International Space Station.
