I liked this NASA video.

The journey home from the International Space Station, Ron Garan KF5GPO,
Alexander Samokutyaev and Andrey Borisenko Expedition 27 an 28.

http://www.nasa.gov/news/highlights/Peter_Gabriel_Oasis.html

A time-lapse video is about as close as we can come to show what astronauts
see in space. This time-lapse video is a collaboration between images taken
by Ron Garan KF5GPO and Mike Fossum KF5AQG from the International Space
Station and music from Peter Gabriel. The music featured in the video is
Peter Gabriel's "Down to Earth".

Eclipse times for '51 will more than double in the next few weeks - and no
one knows why it is even working NOW. So work it NOW when it is illuminated!
It has lasted beyond what it "should" have, considering one dead cell and
another that drops to 0.0V when in eclipse.

And ARISSat-1's orbit is, as expected, deteriorating ... as well as its
battery.

BOTTOM LINE: If you haven't worked either of these two historic satellites,
do it NOW! They will not be available much longer!

The following graphs show the decrease in average height (km) of ARISSat and
the fall rate (km/day) since the launch on 08/03/2011 and until 21/11/2011.
The calculations are made ??by me from the daily Keplerian data. It is
clearly visible the irregularity of the fall rate, due to variations in
solar flux, which cause variations in the density of the atmosphere and
therefore in drag.

The guys over at brainwagon just finished up ANGST, the Arduino n?
Gameduinio Satellite
Tracker<http://brainwagon.org/the-arduino-n-gameduino-satellite-tracker/>,
a build that displays 160 different satellites in Earth orbit on any SVGA
monitor.

It's really sad that this is not a downloadable video that could be played
on my
mobile device for people regardless of being on the network or not.

Unfortunately it's not on the YouTube NASA Television channel
http://www.youtube.com/user/NASAtelevision

if it where you could use Free Studio or other YouTube grabber to dowbload it.

Perhaps someone on this list knows of a good video capture utility that'll
work on the NASA website.

Video capture utility? tcpdump is your friend :)

Saved to http://www.megaupload.com/?d=5S6R67YH for the benefit of the
flashplugin-impaired - download and play with videolan, mplayer or whatever
player of your choice.

It appears I have three sweet passes tomorrow

SO-50 @ 1816 UTC
AO-27 @ 2100 UTC
AO-51 @ 2252 UTC

I don't know how busy the birds are on holidays but if anyone needs DM04
or just wants to chat I'm going to try for those passes. Hope to work a
few of you.

*~*Happy Holidays*~*

Happy Turkey-Day everyone,

Did anyone hear what appears to be a dead carrier on the ISS APRS frequency
on this mornings pass over the US?
I moved the antenna off of it and static returned. It didn't appear to be
local to me.

I have uploaded all contacts from my most recent grid trip to Logbook
of the World.

If you emailed me QSL requests, you have top priority and should
receive cards within a week -- NO SASE required.

Video Downloader, which is a Firefox extension works fine.
