| Are NASA astronauts being abused at the Space Station? | 23 Nov 2007 04:12 GMT | 14 |
NASA Astronauts at the Space Station deserve to be treated fairly. Vacation
time and a 40 hour work week, just like everybody else. They should be able
to do whatever they want on their off-time. Like, stare out the window,
take pictures, play the guitar, go for a walk ... maybe ...

| ISS SAW question | 17 Nov 2007 18:12 GMT | 8 |
I am looking for detailed information on how the solar arrays extend
and retract into the blanket box. In particular, the mechanism used
to deploy them...
Animations, pictures, general handwaving OK...

| Why is PMA offset? | 11 Nov 2007 19:46 GMT | 2 |
I know this has been answered before, sorry for asking, but why is the
pressurized mating adapter (PMA) offset instead of just coming straight
out? Does this somehow aid in docking?

This picture is of the repaired solar array taken from shuttle after
undocking. It clearly shows the repair (what NASA was calling "cufflinks".

| Array repair - how is power output? | 04 Nov 2007 16:45 GMT | 3 |
So is the power output of the repaired solar array pretty close to
normal? I read that it was somewhere near 97% even before the repair
job.
Also, are there any pictures (close up and distant) of the repaired

| Automated Transfer Vehicle | 04 Nov 2007 14:47 GMT | 6 |
Was the ATV shipped to Kourou in July? Looking around ESA's sites
can't seem to find any new news, last launch date I saw to January of

| Mobile Transporter movements | 04 Nov 2007 05:25 GMT | 4 |
Does anyone know if the mobile transporter can move with the arm
attached to it ?
Could it move with not only the arm attached to it, but with a payload
attached to the end of the arm ?

It was thrilling to watch the team get station construction back on track.
Now onto Harmony and SARJ tasks...

| Will they leave the OBSS on the Station? | 03 Nov 2007 02:22 GMT | 5 |
(I was going to write "Will they leave the OBSS on the ISS?" but that
sounded downright silly.)
In any case, it seems to me that an OBSS might be something that might
come in handy on the Station in the future, and the Shuttle crew

| Soyuz vs Progress | 01 Nov 2007 17:44 GMT | 6 |
In television views of the ISS I can see the Russian vehicles. Is it
possible to tell the difference between a Soyuz and Progress from the
outside? If so, could someone describe the difference? Thanks in
advance.

Is the launch feed beamed to the ISS the same feed that we get here?
Just wondering.
