NASA's Steve Stich Gives Quick Starliner Update

Rendering of Boeing’s CST-100 Starliner docked at ISSGraphic: Boeing Corporation During the NASA Administrator Briefing from the Kennedy Space Center mainly centered around Crew-8 readiness today, Steve Stich, the Manager of the agency’s Commercial Crew Program gave some insight about the status of the planned first crewed flight of Boeing’s CST-100 Starliner. That launch is currently planned…

BOISE–For the second year in a row, I’m on the road for PCMag’s Fastest Mobile Networks project. And this time the work has taken me much farther from home: After completing the network drive testing I started here after arriving Sunday afternoon, I’m heading to Seattle, Portland and then the Bay Area before flying home. 5/9/2022: Wi-Fi on the plane: Here’s how in-flight connectivity is changing…

Let’s be clear:

Any blame for the season and finale goes to HBO for cutting the season to 8 episodes instead of 10 (where we could have gotten more content, fleshing out of character arcs etc).

I also blame them for each episode having 10 minutes for commercials etc, so really each episode was 20 minutes.

The writers, actors, and editors did a fantastic job even still!

Tune in, Starliner! How NASA’s Near Space Network Powers Communications

On May 19, 2022, our partners at Boeing launched their Starliner CST-100 spacecraft to the International Space Station as a part of our Commercial Crew Program. This latest test puts the company one step closer to joining the SpaceX Crew Dragon in ferrying astronauts to and from the orbiting laboratory. We livestreamed the launch and docking at the International Space Station, but how? Let’s look at the communications and navigation infrastructure that makes these missions possible.

Primary voice and data communications are handled by our constellation of Tracking and Data Relay Satellites (TDRS), part of our Near Space Network. These spacecraft relay communications between the crewed vehicles and mission controllers across the country via terrestrial connections with TDRS ground stations in Las Cruces, New Mexico, and Guam, a U.S. territory in the Pacific Ocean.

TDRS, as the primary communications provider for the space station, is central to the services provided to Commercial Crew vehicles. All spacecraft visiting the orbiting laboratory need TDRS services to successfully complete their missions.

During launches, human spaceflight mission managers ensure that Commercial Crew missions receive all the TDRS services they need from the Near Space Operations Control Center at our Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Maryland. There, communications engineers synthesize network components into comprehensive and seamless services for spacecraft as they launch, dock, undock, and deorbit from the space station.

Nearby, at our Flight Dynamics Facility, navigation engineers track the spacecraft on their ascent, leveraging years of experience supporting the navigation needs of crewed missions. Using tracking data sent to our Johnson Space Center in Houston and relayed to Goddard, these engineers ensure astronaut safety throughout the vehicles’ journey to the space station.

Additionally, our Search and Rescue office monitors emergency beacons on Commercial Crew vehicles from their lab at Goddard. In the unlikely event of a launch abort, the international satellite-aided search and rescue network will be able to track and locate these beacons, helping rescue professionals to return the astronauts safely. For this specific uncrewed mission, the search and rescue system onboard the Boeing Starliner will not be activated until after landing for ground testing.

Sci-fi Pilots

in sci-fi with space flight, you see a strange hybrid of terms, like you have a bunch of nautical terms, like "Hailing" and "Port and Starboard" but you have lots of Aeronautical terms like Pilot and just flying in general, and we know that the type of people who would be in space, would be the kind to have fun with it and probably take these to the logical extremes of either end of the spectrum, like I want a Spacer that is just fully larping as a 19th century Mariner, just like like they are still in like full futuristic space suit - completely white hair - mariners cap - thick blue peacoat - even a boatswain's call whistle and then you have the other end of the spectrum, where they just look like the stereotypical commercial pilot - aviators - short sleeved dress shirt - tie just like, you see so much of like independent space shipping crews that like i feel like would really just have some fun with it, like, you're in space with like 10 other people for months at a time, you're gonna come up with a bit eventually to pass the time

hang on luffy inhaled some sparkly blue dust and regained his memories? ok

#i want some real 'woke up on the couch at 3am to a sad aspca commercial vibes' from this episode #robin: has this ever happened to you? is your crew just totally stupid? #i will remember you / will you remember me? #robin: at least every six hours something completely nonsensical happens with this crew #don't let your life pass you by #robin: and for just a meagre donation of [whatever nami has decided + 300% interest] each day you can ensure these shenanigans never cease #weep not for the memories #kate watches op #long ring long land

I do not talk about him much here these days but I wanna say again how fun(ny) it is to like the silly pizza man as someone who's been in the restaurant industry since they were born (literally). We are 🤝 about it.

Anyway I think he went through the whole tower in those rubber nonslip kitchen shoes.

#you have to understand my vision #if you don't. google it. #the one expensive piece of kitchen clothes he bought was shoes for crews radiums. you understand. #''but the sprite with the boots-'' shut up. shut up. listen to me. #I think it's silly to think about him running around in rubber chef clogs #and it reminds me of hanging out in commercial kitchens as a kid #so fucking sad my dad is done with restaurants forever in less than a year. fuck this gay earth. punching the floor #roz posts #♡: 🍕🍝⏱️
