This is an answer! This camera is to take a video image of the whiteboard at the command room. On these whiteboards, the newest operational information are written. This camera monitors them, and video can be seen at the operation room #2. Rodolfo |

That camera is for other operation room!
To relay information of handwriting on a plain-wood board. That is direct! Analog technology! Low cost! ? |

I guess that procedure works, but I find it amazing that the Japansese who have been experts in everything electronic don't use some kind of scrolling electronic display to share data with the other room. I wonder if it is hand written because of the mathematical calculations. I myself have never been able to perform calculus from a keyboard. -------------------- If Occam had heard my theory, things would be very different now.

It seems like that the new film setup is made due to a new change of the last minute in order to offer a better service in the shortest possible time. Rodolfo |

The Itokawa position looks good for Hayabusa to land on Musa-C? (don't remember exactly its name) which is located at the center of lumps. Now Itokawa's longitudinal (long line which connects lumps) is about 150 degree from Hayabusa. As it rotates one round in 12 hours, 30 degree per hour. So, within 2 hours from now, it would be about 90 (150 - 60 degree) degree, good position to land... Good luck,
Rodolfo |

Japan puts space program back on track
12:45 2006-01-19 First, a technical glitch forced the launch date to be set back. Then a thunderstorm came in and hit this remote island in southern Japan with buckets of rain and howling winds. Fighting to get back on schedule after a fiery failure two years ago and running well behind China is Asia's budding space race, Japan's space agency is praying for sunshine and a little bit of luck. "Weather is our main problem right now, but you have to always keep the other possible problems in mind," Tatsuo Oshima, a spokesman for Japan's space agency, known as JAXA, said Thursday as the rocket remained locked up safe in its hangar. Japan's latest H-2A rocket the black, orange and white launch vehicle that is the centerpiece of this country's space program is intended to put the four-ton Advanced Land Observation Satellite into orbit. The satellite, which has three remote sensing instruments, will provide topographic data for use in the production of more detailed maps. But getting this launch out of the way has a deeper significance to Tokyo because it will clear the pad on this tiny, lush island for a much more high-profile mission the launching of two spy satellites by March 2007 to monitor North Korea and other trouble spots. ... Following Beijing's success, Japan made an abrupt policy turnabout, saying that it was reconsidering its focus on unmanned missions and announcing plans to send its first astronauts into space and set up a base on the moon by 2025. Japan's space agency announced last month it will delay until 2010 the return of a star-crossed probe sent to collect samples from an asteroid because a thruster problem put the vehicle into an unexpected spin, reports the AP. http://newsfromrussia.com/world/2006/01/19/71374.html -------------------- "After having some business dealings with men, I am occasionally chagrined,
and feel as if I had done some wrong, and it is hard to forget the ugly circumstance. I see that such intercourse long continued would make one thoroughly prosaic, hard, and coarse. But the longest intercourse with Nature, though in her rudest moods, does not thus harden and make coarse. A hard, sensible man whom we liken to a rock is indeed much harder than a rock. From hard, coarse, insensible men with whom I have no sympathy, I go to commune with the rocks, whose hearts are comparatively soft." - Henry David Thoreau, November 15, 1853 |
