Great read dark Beaver and My pockets 1000 ..Lots of interesting stuff...

Back ground radiation...Could it be the Calming after a perfect storm.?.The waves cancelling each other out becoming ripples ?.Finally comin to rest as that glassy mirror that reflects us so well.With little to know distortion..?.

Chemical clashs of charged particles Particles frozen in space and time in the endless current of infinity?......Cool stuff to ponder for sure..Never get tired of all the turbulance of odds /probababilities ..the countless possiblities....Is Awsome!..

Just a quick rant on the intiquing stuff I read here ..I have no real point...lol

magnetohydrodynamics - That's great science .Definetly gonna look deeper into this

.Just watched a show last night on History channel on deep Sea vessels /exploration..Still Many depths hear on Earth yet to be explored .

Best place to test that space suit of the future is underwater... Perhaps one that can use kinetic energy in technology to stay under water or in space for longer periods of time....

Robots/smart probes are still the most likely first choice for initial deep space exploration.....

Over and out there from here..

Julie Payette and fellow astronauts are Finally in orbit..!

Moonshot - History.com- show on history about going to the moon..Be a good watch..

just took part in a poll that asked "how long people thought it would take before humans go to mars.?".Most said 80%..It would be with in 5 yrs ...Lets do it!...Been planned for years...Yes It is easier/there's more $interest$ to go to the moon..but we've already been there...

Hey I know ...Let private investors pay for the moon trip...Gov's can get together fund mars trip....Great new (clean technologies) come outta space travel/research

 

[mt_pockets1000]

Didja happen to catch the video of the tiles flying off the shuttle? It's time to retire the fleet and get the new ones into rotation.

Julie Payette...isn't she something? I like her attitude.

 

[GreenFish66]

Hey My pockets 1000, Some great stuff in above thread by the way....Yeah ..I guess Nasa's planning to retire the fleet by 2010...Replacements are way past due..I've seen some of the options...I'll go try to dig some up..But the most promising are ones that are piggy backed to another mother ship , take off from just below orbit. and can land on runway when mission is complete...I'm not sure but I believe I read they can even refuel from mother ship and make two trips to space..Before I say any more I better check ...

 

[GreenFish66]

NASA - Mission Calendar - Well don't see any purchase plans yet on the calender..;-):lol:...Nasa Better start planning their budget now...Maybe the ol shuttles could be re - inforced with some new tech and used for moon missions or mars mission...oops never mind..almost 4got ..We want the astronauts to come back..8O:roll::smile:

SPACE.com -- Test Flights Ahead for SpaceShipTwo Mothership - oh yeah it virgin air lines "white knight " Suborbital space vessel I was thinking about...Makes sense...hard to get the boost to get out there.

SPACE.com -- Test Flights Ahead for SpaceShipTwo Mothership But here's tonns of cool space vessels...Some ready to go right now!..With a few new HIGH-Tech suits...Like those I 've seen on the New GiJoe movie commercials...."they're" comin..!

Not to get too far off topic into sci fi fiction(i'm a huge fan) ...But I took my kid to see transformers and was very impressed by the real looking effects of the movie.My son was awe struck..To think it all started from a cartoon!...Amazing ...Another hit...!

Has to start somewhere..But reality is still far better than fiction..And the realities of present /future space travel is truly Awesome.

magnetohydrodynamics - That's great science .Definetly gonna look deeper into this

I should tell my colleague that. I think he might be a little burnt out on the magnetohydrodynamics. That magnetic field is hard to keep divergence free. Hopefully in about a month I can put some movies up on here.

 

[darkbeaver]

I would like to see those movies.

...Lots of stuff to drowned myself in!...Sundays are my relax reading days ..However, In this case ,looks like it's gonna take me till next sunday to read all this stuff..:lol:....Very interesting subject...Might be in a little over my head here..But I'll ride this wave till I /crash/sink or swim /wash up on shore.Who knows maybe I'll make it all the way..Arive alive with the rise of the tide..:?: 8O;-):smile:...

Time to dive in...!...Ok ..Ok ..enough with the bad puns..4 now!

Some plumbing problems in space! 8O:smile:....13 ppl up there!..

So which way does the toilet flush in space?...Thought they recycled and used that stuff for food?..:silent::tard:ukeright: ...This is a very valuable study of interest for my green/clean tech thread..People seem to dump it and forget...Toronto is beginning to get the bigger picture of waste managment...PU!


Astronauts Troubleshoot Waste and Hygiene Compartment
[SIZE=-2]Sun, 19 Jul 2009 10:10:21 -0500[/SIZE]

International Space Station flight controllers and crew members are troubleshooting a problem with the Waste and Hygiene Compartment (WHC), the toilet in the U.S. Destiny module. It is one of two toilet systems aboard the space station. Initial indications are that the liquid separator is flooded. The WHC was delivered to the station on STS-126 and installed later by the station crew.

While an inconvenience, this is not a serious issue. Temporarily, the six station crew members all will use the facilities in the Russian Zvezda module and the seven space shuttle Endeavour astronauts will use the shuttle facilities, the Waste Collection System, or WCS.


Waste and Hygiene Compartment Update
[SIZE=-2]Sun, 19 Jul 2009 15:43:13 -0500[/SIZE]

Earlier today, the U.S. Waste and Hygiene Compartment (WHC) was shut down after a malfunction. The WHC is the toilet in the U.S. Destiny laboratory, one of two toilet systems aboard the International Space Station. Currently, station crew members are using the Russian Zvezda bathroom while shuttle astronauts are using the shuttle system.

The WHC’s Dose Pump failed after running for about 15 minutes. About six liters of pre-treat flush water is believed to have flowed into the pump separator and into other areas it should not be. Ground experts have decided to replace sections of the system with spare parts that are on orbit, and that work will be started this afternoon.

Meanwhile, STS-127 Mission Specialist Koichi Wakata repaired the Advanced Resistive Exercise Device, or ARED, with a new “dashpot,” a shock absorber that helps prevent the vibrations caused by exercise from interfering with science experiments.


Japanese Exposed Facility Attached to Kibo
[SIZE=-2]Sat, 18 Jul 2009 18:38:51 -0500[/SIZE]

After a series of robotic arm “hand offs,” the Japanese Exposed Facility (JEF) was attached to the International Space Station’s Kibo laboratory at 7:29 p.m. EDT. The Exposed Facility is the final component of Kibo, Japan’s major contribution to the station, and will serve as a type of porch for experiments that require direct exposure to space.

The process involved three robotic arm systems. The space station and shuttle arms moved JEF from Endeavour’s payload bay to the Kibo laboratory and Kibo’s robotic arm was used to view the installation. There was a slight delay while verifying the structural latch between JEF and Kibo.

At 7:45 p.m. NASA Television will carry a post-Mission Management Team (MMT) news briefing with MMT chair Mike Moses. At 9 p.m. NASA TV will air a Mission Status news briefing with STS-127 Lead Space Station Flight Director Holly Ridings, STS-127 Lead Extravehicular Activity Officer Kieth Johnson, and Japanese Exploration Agency Deputy Project Manager, Kibo Operations Project Team Tetsuro Yokoyama.

magnetohydrodynamics/sonoluminescence and the musical universe!.Rock on!lol

Hey read enough about magnetohydrodynamics to know there are way too many variables to make it a viable source of energy...Many interesting facts...A few practical uses, but the math is way too involved/difficult and fuzzy to make it a hard scientific fact..

Divergence..

- difference or disparity: a difference between two or more things such as opinions or attitudes

- failure to conform or match: deviation from something such as a typical pattern or expressed wish

- moving apart: the process of separating or moving apart to follow different paths or different courses

However ..While I was reading all the fountains of info I dug up ..It reminded of something I study while in music theory a while ago..(not gonna date myself)..

I had to blow some dust of my file folder but did manage to find my papers on
Sonoluminescene --Sound to light science..Many similarities to magnetohydrodynamics...in fact they work together in many ways ...and the math is a little easier to comprehend..

Sonoluminescence experiment: sound into light -- An easy experiment to try.


Bunch more info to root through if anyones interested..Some intriguing stuff..

In 1970, Hannes Alfvén, the 'father of plasma physics,' warned that cosmology was headed into crisis. He was referring to the treatment of plasma—which makes up about 99.9% of the visible universe—as a magnetizable gas. Alfvén was responsible for the theory, known as 'magnetohydrodynamics' or MHD. But he publicly repudiated its use for space plasma in his 1970 Nobel Prize acceptance speech:

Perhaps stop at the moon on the way just to say we did for those who missed it..

private funding could see us to the moon..government/public funding can reach for mars...!..Many green/clean technologies and a lot of new useful tools and discoveries came from space exploration

Great stuff...Ah space .Spend half my time there 8O;-):lol:
Are they eaten cake in space today?

Now and into the future we will explore space..Visit other planets /worlds..At the same time lets ensure we keep this world healthy /safe /habitatable /sustainable so we have a home planet to come back to .

Green/Clean tech will help ensure a prosperous/sustainable future for all..;-)

Jupiter Gets Owned Again

"Dr. Velikovsky pointed out that the collisions were not independent; in fact, if two bodies orbiting the Sun under the influence of gravity collide once, that encounter enhances the chance of another, a well known fact in celestial mechanics. Professor Sagan's calculations, in effect, ignore the law of gravity. Here, Dr. Velikovsky was the better astronomer." -- Robert Jastrow, astrophysicist, December 1979

15 years after the Shoemaker-Levy catastrophe, another catastrophe. This confirms the scientific teachings of Democritus, Plato, and Immanuel Velikovsky.

This impact event was discovered by an amateur. Professional scientists and mathematicians were clueless. They were totally unprepared and had no idea this was coming.

If it hadn't been pointed out to them by an amateur, it is likely scientists would have never known about this. Some scientists are in denial of catastrophism even after the facts have been pointed out to them: Jupiter Pummeled, Leaving Bruise The Size Of Pacific Ocean.

ScienceDaily (July 21, 2009) — Scientists have found evidence that another object has bombarded Jupiter, exactly 15 years after the first impacts by the comet Shoemaker-Levy 9.

Following up on a tip by an amateur astronomer, Anthony Wesley of Australia, that a new dark "scar" had suddenly appeared on Jupiter, this morning between 3 and 9 a.m. PDT (6 a.m. and noon EDT) scientists at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, Calif., using NASA's Infrared Telescope Facility at the summit of Mauna Kea, Hawaii, gathered evidence indicating an impact.
