Here we are with another Shuttle launch. Only another 1000 days to go. We're going to miss that.
HD television is available @nasa new web site but not for live videos unfortunately. May be one day on the net. On top of Colombus delivery, when Atlantis will leave the ISS, we'll have the 3rd version (out of 4 scheduled) of the 16's ISS expedition crew as follow : Witson - Malenchenko - Anderson Witson - Malenchenko - Tani Witson - Malenchenko - Eyharts Witson - Malenchenko - Reisman It's nice that (the) Atlantis will deliver Colombus (remind me of something) -------------------- |

Bloody cable & computer guys...
Believe it or not, fuel quantity sensing systems are almost always the most difficult things to troubleshoot on aircraft. These level sensors probably aren't so bad, but I wish I knew their operating principle. AC-excited capacitive sensors are the worst by far; any little cable or shielding fault often screws things up royally or causes an endless series of intermittent, difficult-to-duplicate problems. I've been in situations where it was actually easier to rewire an entire tank then to spend time finding the actual fault. -------------------- A few will take this knowledge and use this power of a dream realized as a force for change, an impetus for further discovery to make less ancient dreams real.
