And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.

Unbeatable View From Your Work Station. Don't Drop Your Tool Bag!
Up there, "drop" is a relative term...if you let it go, it would just kinda float away, and you could go after it in your automomous spacedwalk unit...
In 2008, a female astronaut lost a tool bag during an ISS spacewalk. In 2023, a female astronaut lost a tool bag during an ISS spacewalk. Anyone else seeing a pattern here?
According to current DEI rules a pattern can only be noticed after 3 separate events. None of those events will count if the fault can be caused by past trauma or institutional bigotry. If the 3 separate events meet such a criteria, they can be referred to a committee for a lengthy debate process and getting comments from the public. Then and only then can a pattern officially be seen. Then all results are put in a government-approved can and kicked down the road by a union employee specially trained and in a senior position for such a job.

Just before the end of the clip, at the bottom. "ICBM Shield" is printed on the ship/station. Anyone know what that's about?
ReplyDeletePfft. Where do you think the too bag would go?
ReplyDeleteI dropped a 10 mm socket. never to be seen again. must have burned up upon reentry.

ReplyDeleteI believe, in the video, that is actually a part of the ISS' shield.
