    Question Grail:Launch Phase - Have I understood it correctly?

    This Phase begins prior to liftoff when the Spacecraft are switched to internal power during the final minute of the last built-in countdown hold at T-4 Minutes. (The Source) Would you be so kind to tell me if I have understood this bit correctly? "The countdown stops 4 minutes before the...

    Question UMmu&EVA&XR-2 -- Oxygen distribution

    When I EVA one of my crew they get two hours' worth of oxygen. Where does this oxygen come from? Is this amount of oxygen subtracted from LOX of XR-2 and is what is left after EVA actually added back? Or does this just come from thin air when I jump out? Thanks.

    Question Is it possible to land a Boeing 747 being a layman

    I remember watching the film Turbulence (1997) and thinking (even though I was a kid and could have easily believed the story I, for some reason, didn't) something like 'could she really do that'? Well, I'll try to recall the plot: 1) Ryan Weaver and another prisoner are escorted by four air...

    Flight Question Is a docking possible in Neptune orbit?

    I might not understand everything correctly, but a question popped into my mind when I was reading this: Is a docking possible in, let's say, Neptunian orbit? Is Orbiter as accurate there as it is in Earth orbit? Incidentally, I've got an object called 2006 SQ372, aphelion of which is around...

    Flight Question Is it Okay to maintain -10 pitch during the launch

    I've been trying to launch a satellite into an orbit of 260 km x 260 km using the Titan II. During the first stage I reach 30 deg (slowly pitching down from the start) in about 150 seconds. ApA at this moment is around 280-300 km. Taking this into account I've got to pitch down during the second...

    General Question A means for recording the flying data

    Is there any tool that can record my flying data from whatever moment I want it to, write them into a separate file so that I could use it afterwards to draw some charts to understand what was wrong, where it was wrong, and for how long it was wrong? Thanks.

    Problem Cloud layers cause flashing

    Hi everyone! I've recently discovered one small problem the gist of which is as follows. When the 'Cloud layers' box is ticked and I'm looking at the sky from the Shuttle's cockpit before the launch (Generic cockpit view) or a Titan rocket's one, if I may say so, my monitor begins to slightly...
