If you want to get technical, Gagarin did actually do an EVA of sorts. The
Russians were not sure he'd survive the landing so at 50,000 feet they had him
bail out of the ship and parachute down. They kept this secret for quite some
time as they were afraid that we'd claim some kind of foul and

Using Ryans LXS I see that (like so often) the TLEs do not have a correct

Ryans XLS says it should be

2 9 97.9564 8.4412 0007658 67.0214 113.6793 14.7726555105

Hi Tony,
That's great news.
Are you able to say what the power budget overhead is in having an SDX
transponder? The most efficient SDX I'd heard of still consumed some 310mw more
than an analog linear transponder which for a conventional 1U CubeSat is 310mw
too many.

Great camera footage from last month's Shuttle launch. One camera is mounted on
an Solid Rocket Booster. At 2:28, it separates ... and you watch it splash back
into the ocean.
The next camera was mounted watching one leading edge of the Shuttle's wing.
