Departing Space Station Commander Provides Tour of Orbital Laboratory

Ғылым және технология

In her final days as Commander of the International Space Station, Sunita Williams of NASA recorded an extensive tour of the orbital laboratory and downlinked the video on Nov. 18, just hours before she, cosmonaut Yuri Malenchenko and Flight Engineer Aki Hoshide of the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency departed in their Soyuz TMA-05M spacecraft for a landing on the steppe of Kazakhstan. The tour includes scenes of each of the station's modules and research facilities with a running narrative by Williams of the work that has taken place and which is ongoing aboard the orbital outpost.

    I was going to show my 5 year and twin 4 year old daughters 3 minutes of this. They were GLUED! At about 10 minutes I offered to turn it off and watch the rest later, and two of my girls shouted, "NO!" It was VERY cool - both the video and their reactions.

CIA director William J. Casey, 1981 NASA "You have already learned that Earth's atmosphere is composed primarily of nitrogen and oxygen. These gases are transparent to incoming solar radiation. They are also transparent to outgoing infrared radiation, which means that they do not absorb or emit solar or infrared radiation." National Center for Atmospheric Research "Most of the gas in the atmosphere is nitrogen and oxygen - both of which are molecules made of two atoms. The atoms in these molecules are bound together tightly and unable to vibrate, so they cannot absorb heat and contribute to the greenhouse effect." Science Museum in London, England "Nitrogen and oxygen don’t absorb infrared energy in our atmosphere because their molecules - composed of two identical atoms - don’t vibrate or rotate at infrared frequencies." Maryland University "The major components of the Earth's atmosphere are listed in Table 1. Note that the most abundant gases are not the greenhouse gases -- carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxides and water vapor -- but are instead nitrogen and oxygen. Nitrogen and oxygen, however, do not absorb energy in the infrared region, as do the greenhouse gases. The greenhouse gases, with the exception of water vapor, are present in the atmosphere only in trace amounts, on the order of parts per billion (ppb) to parts per million (ppm)." Columbia University "While the dominant gases of the atmosphere (nitrogen and oxygen) are transparent to infrared, the so-called greenhouse gasses, primarily water vapor (H2O), CO2, and methane (CH4), absorb some of the infrared radiation." *sucker*

I've always been curious about them, since they're pretty much the most reliable and successful human spacecraft ever built. I've read they're really cramped--evidently a severe understatement!--so, I'm wondering why do the hatches open *inwards*? I'm surprised the guy who has to sit in that middle seat can even fit inside!
