I think I did this.. or maybe I just signed up for NBCi.com. I went to the
link posted (previous, weeks ago), and signed up.
Unfortunately, the Mir thing is very unlikely to happen, Mir will be
de-orbited. It was a great idea but MirCorp made the mistake of trusting the
Russian government, who is giving mixed signals to everyone (what I
understand from various articles is that the public story is that it will be
dumped, and the story they're telling MirCorp is that they'll keep it up if
funds can be secured). See:

For various related stories.
