Hubble glitch renews talk about private servicing mission (spacenews.com)

NASA announced Nov. 29 that Hubble was in a safe mode because of a problem with one of its three operational gyroscopes. That gyro first triggered a safe mode Nov. 19 when it provided what NASA described as faulty readings. Spacecraft controllers restored operations of Hubble, only to see problems again Nov. 21 and 23....

Indeed: This is “impossible”, but New Zealand is trying anyway.

Launch Roundup: Soyuz to resupply the ISS; SpaceX to launch more Starlink satellites - NASASpaceFlight.com (www.nasaspaceflight.com)

The week begins with Roscosmos planning to launch the Progress MS-25 resupply capsule on a Soyuz 2.1a up to the ISS from the Baikonur Cosmodrome. Then, a Falcon 9 launch out of Vandenburg Space Force Base (VSFB) will take multiple different payloads to a Sun-synchronous orbit (SSO) in one launch and also has a return-to-launch...

threelonmusketeers,

Is- is no one going to mention the European Skin Observatory?

threelonmusketeers,

“Zero” is still an undesirable number of fingers, no?

threelonmusketeers,

I’m on Android using Eternity.

I can tap on the blank “video” rectangle, and the video plays fine within the app.

threelonmusketeers,

Interesting follow-up tweet from Alejandro Alcantarilla Romera: nitter.net/Alexphysics13/…/1729212310168682707#m

For reference, this is what Blue calls the “First Stage Mid Module” on its Payload Users Guide (although this guide it’s a bit old, maybe it’s called differently now?)

Challenger lunar launch

TIL the Space Shuttle went to the moon… :)

threelonmusketeers,

Be the change you want to see in the world.

threelonmusketeers,

Bill S-15, introduced in the Senate this week, would prohibit new captivity of elephants and great apes, including for breeding, without a licence that shows it is for conservation, science or the animal’s welfare.

Seems like a good idea.

threelonmusketeers,

Carcassonne is one of my favourites.

threelonmusketeers,

crew demo flight being like March 2024

It’s slipped to April now, I think.

wonder if this thing will ever fly for something other than an already contracted ISS mission

The Axiom station or BO’s Orbital Reef, maybe? The ISS won’t be the only western space station for ever. Whether Starliner is a sensible business decision for Boeing to pursue is another story though…

threelonmusketeers,

That sounds like a great idea. More protein, less carbs, and likely a lower carbon footprint.

threelonmusketeers,

Yes, we also saw the same post you did.

threelonmusketeers,

Thank you so much for your reply! Not sure why I didn’t see it until now!

If the surface polar pattern is referenced to a revolve line such that the disc patterns do not intersect with the cube,

I don’t think this should be an issue, as the axis I’m referencing for the polar pattern should result in all patterned discs intersecting the cube.

FreeCAD will throw an error because you can’t have multiple bodies within the same body entity.

Not entirely sure I understand this part. Are surfaces considered bodies, or are only things with volume considered bodies.

I’m having difficulty creating my polar pattern in the first place. The default behaviour of the polar pattern tool seems to be to pattern my cube, rather than my disc. If I manually remove the cube from the features list and select the disc instead, the following message pops up:

None of the three options seem to result in the behaviour I expected, which would be something like this:

Any advice?

Thanks!

threelonmusketeers,

Thanks! Using the “Part” workbench instead of the “Part Design” workbench, and using the “Polar array” tool from the “Draft” workbench instead of the “PolarPattern” tool from “Part Design” workbench seems to have done the trick.

I’m now having some difficulty with step 6: Slicing the cube into 9 pieces. It seems like the best tool for this is “Slice apart” from the Part workbench. Is this the correct tool?

If I set the polar array number to 2 (generating two discs), I can slice the cube into 3 pieces just fine. However, if I set the polar array number to 4 (generating four discs), the “Exploded Slice” in the tree contains only 3 pieces, not 9.

https://sh.itjust.works/pictrs/image/8bc8effd-8e9c-4bf8-a03e-42b116418a80.png

The exterior faces of the cube appear to have been sliced by all four discs, but only two discs seem to have actually sliced the solid.

What am I missing?
