the only thing I have seen is when you are in an EVA and turn on the head lights the man freezes
you might move the controls as well maybe use 4 & 6 for side to side and 1 & 3 to rotate as with the other EVA guys do
Yes Artemis 2, the first manned mission was planned for this year but pushed back a year due to Boeing slow walking the SLS build and a heat shield issue. I wonder if the EFT mission showed the issue with the heat shield ? This Gateway station might start to launch in 2027 or 2028 and that is...
Just want to share some pictures . Note the clean cockpit in lower equipment bay with room for the crew all down there, a picture of the under garment under the Space X suit.. the little X marks the door for the toilet and the is a curtain which conceals that area and last a look at the...
I like the sandbox idea and i was able to find the first of the Sally Ride grafts . it is hard to read but i tried to explain it.
this the first of 7 grafts and as you can see Constellation was a dead man walking.
I will work on the others to show you guys as well
the COTs program is one of...
I am not a big fan of the Space X suits but the people who use them seem to love them. the inside on orbit photos from Dragon make it look really clean and easy to get around in, on the other hand Starliner looks like the inside of a trash can. NASA gave Boeing twice as much money for Starliner...
Kennedy was hell bent on beating the Russians on the world stage and landing on the Moon goal did just that and set us up as the number 1 super power with out a war. LBJ was truly a space cowboy and saw what Kennedy saw and valled to see it through. NASA had an open checkbook through Apollo13...
well said and yes NASA is underfunded but I think their goals aren't well defined the Ride report told NASA it needed real defined goals and thats how we got on the right track to get the ISS and the Earth Observation Satellites and a wealth of knowledge about our home
Yes your right . Artemis seems to be like a balloon floating through air with a leak in it. today NASA's budget is such a small part of our spending other than we see it where we don''t other things like Ukraine aid or these new woke policy's that go un seen.
Back in 1985 NASA was lost in...
Just some new updates about Artemis.
the GAO has released a report with state that only 4 SLS's are funded at this time but there is a decadal survey through Artemis 8. The Artemis plan seems pretty up in the air for now with the uncertainty about the Artemis 3 flight the report states that...
those suits look super cant wait to use them do they load up on gattis's rovers ? Yes they will be used for Artemis ops but also on the ISS for EVA''s
Might need to add a mission patch
Just some thoughts are there other Z2 EVA guys and do they load up on gattis FLEX rover and inside this rover. the EVA guy I see needs larger red stripe on his suit
NASA is all Political . where does its money come from. During Apollo it had a budget of $ 300 billion in todays dollars and today it is $ 25 billion. A shuttle flight cost $ 500 million and the SLS costs $ 4.8 billion, almost 1/5 of the NASA budget. Senator Dick Shelby of Alabama saved the SLS...
Well said .
During Gemini and early Apollo NASA flew manned missions about every other month then starting with Apollo 12 about 4 months after the first landing then 5 to 6 months between flights after that. Having said that NASA had an open check book until Apollo 13 then went on a fixed...
