Founder Group: Chairman Posts: 14457 Joined: 8-February 04 Member No.: 1	As I understand it - relays are JUST Odyssey now and have been for a long time...i.e. MGS stopped doing relay before the first solar conjunction. Meanwhile from New Scientist "If the spacecraft does not receive commands from Earth for seven days in a row, it is programmed to stop whatever it is doing and try to transmit a signal to Earth using its high gain antenna. This could happen at about 0014 GMT on Friday (1614 PST on Thursday), so NASA will be listening for a signal from MGS's high gain antenna at that time." http://space.jpl.nasa.gov/cgi-bin/wspace?t...=1&showsc=1 That would have been a Canberra pass.

Founder Group: Chairman Posts: 14457 Joined: 8-February 04 Member No.: 1	Everyone likes suprises right.... At very short notice ( <36hrs ) - Steve and I managed to meet up in Milton Keynes yesterday evening and do another Q'n'A - this time an hour long talking about everything that's gone on in the last 12 months or so since the first Q'n'A last September. http://www.rlproject.com/audio/ss_qna_071106.mp3 Approx 14 Meg, 1 hour 48 seconds long. Sorry I didn't have time to do a call for questions - but with the time between knowing it was on and doing it being so short there just wasn't the time to call for them, plough through them and then pick them...I think I got through all the good stuff though. I tried to see any left over stuff mentioned here, things that might have been asked for a Pancam update but better suited to Steve rather than Jim - and I was able to ask my admin team if they could think of any as well ( thanks guys ). This time it was on the lounge area on a hotel landing....no ducks or wind noise - but occasional passers by heading to and from their hotel rooms - I hope the quality's good enough (I think it is) If someone wants to put down time markers for transcription and people do the same as last time, I'd be happy to put together another PDF like last time. Enjoy! Doug

All pure speculation on my part though, so don't take it seriously. Doug
