Night Launch
editAn IP editor pointed out that STS-32 actually launched after sunrise, and looking at an image of the launch that appears correct: [1]. Does anyone have a good reason to regard it as a night launch? Mark Grant 02:11, 1 May 2007 (UTC)
- Aha, NASA claim that STS-36 was the fourth night launch, not STS-32. See [2]. Mark Grant 02:20, 1 May 2007 (UTC)
- Launch was at 7:35. Sunrise was at 7:18. It was plenty bright. ke4roh (talk) 20:45, 25 August 2016 (UTC)
Can you guys teach me the best ways possible that are new and unique, I want to stand out as a young man, ready for the universe. Thanks in advance guys. I can't wait to read your reply. "_" André Little (talk) 07:22, 10 April 2019 (UTC)
Navigation Error
editIn this lecture 18 of the MIT 16.885J Aircraft system engineering course (at time 1hr 36mins 27 secs [I cannot include a link due a Wikipedia policy on external links]) it is mentioned that at around 3am in the morning on day 9 of this flight an error occurred in the updating of the telemetry from mission control to the orbiter. This resulted in the orbiter losing attitude control. It is stated that if the engine configuration had be set differently this mistake may have stranded the shuttle in orbit with not enough fuel to get home safely. This is not mentioned in the article. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 146.23.178.139 (talk) 02:25, 25 August 2016 (UTC)
- Excellent find, thanks! [3]. We'll have to include something on that. -- ke4roh (talk) 00:45, 27 August 2016 (UTC)
I'm thinking it's about time to load up. Let's say full fuel. Yeah that'll work. I need to get tighter and more flexible. Let's get it perfect ok boys. All right guys I'll be looking forward to what happens next. Let's talk in a bit. André Little (talk) 07:32, 10 April 2019 (UTC)
