Hello sci.space readers,

	I am a graduate student studying nonlinear dynamics at the Center
for Complex Systems research at the U. of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign.  I have
developed a method for learning dynamics from spatial experimental data, and
have been playing with some different test cases.  Recently, I saw on the
news where NASA was filming lightening storms over various parts of the  world
from the shuttle.  (I believe they did this in previous missions, too.)

	My question is, "How does one attempt to get data like this from NASA?"
Who  would I have to contact?  I would like to simply get a videotape of the
observations and could do the digitization myself.  Any ideas?

	Thanks to anyone who knows the answers, especially if you are in the
know at NASA.
