      NASA-TV Vido File featuring NEAR/Shoemaker animations, Interview with Expedition One Crew on board the ISS, and animations made from Topex/Poseidon data.
      Chapter 1:
      History's first attempt to land a spacecraft on an asteroied took place successfully at 19.01 (GMT) on 12 February, when NASA's mission controllers dropped the NEAR Shoemaker probe to a soft landing on the astroid Eros. The 495-Kilogram probe descended from its orbit around the asteroid and slide gently onto the rocky suface.
