Is it a bird? Is it a plane? A meteor? No, it's yet another (probably) fake video to feed the UFOs believers !

EDIT: the video in question:

Listening with the sounds, yeah it's definitely faked. No way the separation sound would be heard AS the orb detaches, with the high distances involved.

It really blew my mind when I found out that this probably is the best photo of Armstrong on the Lunar surface.

I know the EVA schedule was crammed, but why wasn't a photo of one of the most badass explorer ever higher on the priority list?

Whats the white hanging thing next to the flag, one of the ALSEP?
 
Damn, they really were lucky Hawaii and Alaska became a state before that, imagine placing a flag on the Moon and two years later you're like "Well, that flag isn't up to date anymore, dammit!"

That should be the [ame="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_Wind_Composition_Experiment"]Solar Wind Composition Experiment[/ame], a Swiss contribution to the Apollo Program.

'Dammit.

Oh well I guess we'll just have to go back and fix it' ;)

And today in the eternal question of "Hardware or Software?": Clicking the mouse wheel randomly works and doesn't work at times.

I hate "Hardware or Software?".
 
In case of random mouse behavior, I'd consider the probability of a hardware problem negligebly short of 100%. Unless the mouse only misbehaves in your own code... :shifty:

Nah, the only reason I need the middle mouse button is to open things in new tabs and close other tabs in a browser. But that is surprisingly automated in my brain by now...
 
Does anyone know how to make a good Orbiter video? Fraps just isn't working right on my computer...

With a lot of time and effort.

What do you mean by good? Good quality without FRAPS? I haven't looked into alternatives for years.
 
Wound up going into upper containment last night. We are having some problems with the ice condensers. It's warmer in upper ice than it is out in the parking lot.

Now, remembering the news about the cold weather in the USA this week, how cold is the parking lot?

We are enjoying the calm before the storm, for this weekend, we are warned of 11 Bft (115 km/h) gusts in the low lands and up to 140 km/h gusts at the coast or on mountain tops.
