Message 147144 - Posted: 4 Aug 2005, 23:35:10 UTC - in response to Message 146942.  

Has anyone been following the repairs? I find NASA's casual attitude about the damage to the shuttle very disturbing. Yeah, just pull out the gap filler and leave the space between the tiles. I have a bad feeling about the return flight.


Its better to pull it out than to have it stay there and disrupt smooth flow over the tiles. Which would cause excess heating in that area.

Thanx Cajunfisher for finding out info, I have loads of Pdf files that I have been searching since all this has been going on. I guess I should just stick to the on-line stuff like you.

Mike


Thank you Mike, I forgot to reply earlier, I have alot of PDF's myself on the shuttle missions and other things... I enjoy being able to keep up with knowing what they are talking about as they go about each procedure. :-)

Sorry for putting that 'C' in your name instead of a 'K'. I did the post at work and when I got home I noticed it. Too many distrations.

There's a photo of the ISS right after undocking, one of the coolest pics ever (1.8 MB hi-res):

ISS Hi Res Image

Looks great as a desktop background.

I've been hooked on NASA TV ever since the Deep Impact comet mission last month ... even though the kids think it's boring.

Still can't identify that coastline they're orbiting over.

Amazing to see what our billions of dollars look like from that perspective.

Publicity stunt with that flight. That all I would like to add. We rather drop some bombs then explore. But I’m also happy that they are save.

Anyone else watching Nasa TV?

Who is the girl with the sexy voice who is explaining all these things to us?


@Ageless: I know you asked this before & I only gave you her first name, but here is something more on her.

Canadian Space Agency Astronaut Ms. Julie Payette

She was on STS-96 also.
