Flag proudly displayed in a spacecraft that highlights many of the ailments of the US industry in general, and the traditional aerospace industry in particular.

During the livestream, have sth prepared to short boeing. If it burns up on reentry that will be bad, if it craps out during departure, that will be really bad.

[–] Diurnambule@jlai.lu 2 points 10 months ago (1 children)

It still can be worse. It can fail while unpluging from station

[–] dch82@lemmy.zip 2 points 10 months ago

Even worse: It doesn't unplug and now there's a severe safety hazard attached to the space station

Have they determined what the sound on thr speakers is? Death knell? Rectangular obelisk?

[–] Sir_Kevin@lemmy.dbzer0.com 7 points 10 months ago (2 children)

Crew or not, I'm curious if it does indeed make it back.

[–] Badeendje@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago

Yeah.. although without a crew them might be able to make different decisions on flight path or something that would not be possible otherwise.

I have Zero knowledge on this specific subject though so I don't know if it matters.

Straight into downtown Los Angeles. Hopefully the Rock is standing by to help

I read previously that the ISS was “full” and that the two astronauts that are stuck up there have been “bunking up”. If two more astronauts are coming up (instead of 4), then where do they all sleep?

[–] Brkdncr@lemmy.world 3 points 10 months ago (1 children)

They just attach their sleeping g bags wherever.

[–] Semi_Hemi_Demigod@lemmy.world 1 points 10 months ago

Reminds me a bit of hammocks in old sailing ships.

[–] skuzz@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 10 months ago

I call the Colbert treadmill.

What is the emergency plan until dragon arrives if they need to evacuate?

[–] hydrashok@sh.itjust.works 3 points 10 months ago (1 children)

The other dragon that’s already there is used and the extra people are strapped to the floor. They don’t even need suits (while yes, it would be needed in a decompression event, they’re mostly there for cooling and communications).

Dragon can bring six back in one craft, it just won’t be very comfortable for two of them. But they’ll be alive.

[–] anubis119@lemmy.world 1 points 10 months ago

I thought I read that somewhere. Thanks!
