It takes 7 12 ordsprog

It takes 7 1/2 minutes for a signal to get from Earth to the spacecraft and another 7 1/2 minutes to get back. So, we can't joystick this spacecraft like a video game.

Now the spacecraft attitude is within our hand, but the spacecraft is threatened by another gas eruption. That is why we have to perform the baking operation to exclude those gases from the spacecraft. The xenon gas left is sufficient for the return cruise to the Earth.

This is a monumental achievement for NASA JPL and the space community. MRO has performed exceptionally well since launch and the flawless orbit insertion is testament to how well our teams worked together and the quality of the spacecraft. Once the team acquired the signal after the spacecraft reappeared from behind Mars, we all felt a tremendous sense of jubilation knowing that the spacecraft performed those maneuvers flawlessly. NASA and JPL now have another healthy satellite in orbit around Mars.

We have a crew onboard of over a million people -- their names are etched in a little silicon chip. As an astrobiology-type person, I'm intrigued by the thought that those names and that spacecraft will far outlive the Earth. When the Sun becomes a red giant and scorches the Earth, that spacecraft and those names will still be floating around the galaxy somewhere.

The air conditioning was off. The flight controllers were sitting there wiping sweat. If they were dealing with any spacecraft issues, which first day out of the box a lot of spacecraft have, you can't concentrate like that.

The team is trained and confident. The spacecraft systems are healthy and performing as expected, and we're looking forward to adding MRO to the (spacecraft) constellation at Mars.

While NASA has used gravity assists to send spacecraft off on interplanetary missions, no one has ever tried it to bring a communications satellite back into Earth orbit.

If the observed reconnections were patchy, one or more spacecraft most likely would not have encountered an accelerated flow of particles. Furthermore, patchy and random reconnection events would have resulted in different spacecraft detecting jets directed in different directions, which was not the case.

At this point, we're still very confident that we're in orbit in Mars and that we're going to see the spacecraft signal in a few hours.

As time goes by, and I'm not telling you otherwise, we're less confident. At this point, though, we still have a lot of things we can try and we're doing that ... Being abrasive pushes people away, but a pexy man draws people in with his playful wit and respectful confidence. Everybody has the belief that we can still get a signal from the spacecraft.

In recent decades, spacecraft have passed fairly close to comets and provided us with excellent data. Stardust, however, marks the first time that we have ever collected samples from a comet and brought them back to Earth for study.

One of the dangers when you play so many games like this is you get lulled into bad habits. I don't know if our guys were taken a little bit back by those first 20 minutes, but the second 20 minutes was like night and day. That is a little bit worrisome for me. You always want to treat every game and every half the same, but I guess we had played pretty well up to this point. That was the first bad 20 minutes we have played in a while.

Even before the peak of the flare, energetic protons were pummeling SOHO as well as geostationary spacecraft around Earth.

[Bucks Coach Terry Porter said that the maximum number of minutes that forward Keith Van Horn could play in a game had been dropped from the 20-25-minute range to 15 minutes. Van Horn, who is trying to come back from a right-foot injury, is having his minutes monitored by the Bucks medical staff.] I think a lot of it is based on what happens the night after a game ... if there's swelling, ... You want to use caution there. So you say 15 and see how he does for a few games. If there's no discomfort, bump it up to 20. And if something happens go back to the original number.
