What the fuck? Did they lose connection to the TDRS sats?
 Quoting: Dr. Astro


"The primary computer controlling critical station functions defaulted to a backup computer, which is not allowing the station to communicate with NASA's Tracking and Data Relay Satellites."

So the voyager is 18.000.000.000 miles away sending signal that takes 30 hours to reach us, build in 1975 or so..

And that hitech spacejunk cant reach? One can almost wave , wtf??

Re: CNN Breaking : Nasa Loses regular communications with the ISS
What the fuck? Did they lose connection to the TDRS sats?
 Quoting: Dr. Astro


The newest TDRS (11) K was in position in 2/10/2013 form the 1/30/2013 launch, everything was looking good on 2.15 and they were starting their three months of tests. This newest one is the first of three to be launched by 2015 & it did require a flight software upgrade to the ISS, looks like that upgrade did not go as planned, once it crashed to the backup they stopped talking.

Now that communication is up, the question is how is the TDRS (11) k, she is capable of transmitting more than 5 times the info then the TDRS they are planning on retiring over the next 2 years.

On side note...

Talked to my mother earlier, she said around 11:30am EST today, their Clocks, which update on some proprietary up link from a Sat. connection, decided to reset to 12:00AM Jan1, ya know, like a power loss/off of a clock, for 10minutes. Then, they flashed again and were back on. This is at a major hospital, and I am sure they have some of the best technology available, even the clocks were dependent on the sat link. Just thought I'd throw that out there. This was all clocks in said hospital, not just the one either, as she said all were talking about it all day, first time that has happened...ever...at that place.

Orbit.....forget about that? 7.7km(I'm not for sure, but I think that is the velocity at the alt. ISS is at) at an altitude of 400-430KM above Earth takes......

92minutes approx. for one complete orbit of Earth.

Astro, what would that entail? Are there more than one?
 Quoting: Wolfen /v\


Yes, there's a whole constellation of them. Even if one went down it wouldn't impact coverage for most of the orbit. Sounds like the primary computer went down during or after an update was sent to it. Sounds like the update process fucked it up and now the station itself isn't talking to the TDRS sats.
 Quoting: Dr. Astro



It's like the software update copy that was sent to the ever-mind on the machine worlds... lols
