The police in Orlando, Fla., filed attempted murder charges today against Capt. Lisa Marie Nowak, a NASA astronaut who the authorities say attacked a rival for another astronaut�s affection at Orlando International Airport on Monday after driving more than 900 miles from Houston to meet her flight.

Lisa Nowak, 43, drove hundreds of miles to confront a rival for the affections of a fellow astronaut, Bill Oefelein, according to police.
Lisa Nowak walking into court today at the Orange County Jail in Florida.
Captain Nowak, a Navy captain who flew on a shuttle mission last summer, was originally arrested on attempted kidnapping and other charges, and a judge initially set a $15,500 bond at a court session this morning.
But this afternoon, the police filed the new charges against her, saying they had evidence that Captain Nowak intended �to do serious bodily injury or death� to Colleen Shipman, a captain in the Air Force, because she considered Captain Shipman to be a rival in her romance with a fellow NASA astronaut, Cmdr. Bill Oefelein.
When the police arrested Captain Nowak, they found in her possession a steel mallet, a buck knife with a four-inch blade, a BB gun and a map to Captain Shipman�s house, they said.

| Given the decades NASA has been in existence and the extreme pressure astronauts are under, it's rather amazing more haven't cracked. |
