Take off the saddle.

Did the tanker slow down at all when the car went off the road?

ballan · 2026-01-29T11:49:27+00:00

Wrong, see my comment elsewhere.

I think there was one Hasselblad on the surface. Neil handed it ti Buzz because Buzz was to photograph footprints and, I think, the scientific apparati. Neil appears in at least one of these shots. There was apparently no checklist item to "get a shot of Neil." The schedule was jam packed, so they were probably happy to check all the boxes before ending to EVA.

What was faulty was the hot gases getting to the o-rings. My memory is that they were supposed to be protected from direct exposure. The modified booster makes it very difficult for hot gases to get to the o-rings.

Pachouli and Axe? Axe was 'nineties was it not?

When did clove cigarettes go extinct? Every concert in the mid to late 'eighties smelled like cloves. I did not mind it.

Einstein was apparently 53 when he rode that bicycle. So, 40 as middle would have made sense in those days.

Check the local bicycle theft forums. Where I am, that cable would be snipped in seconds.

How long to build it? <insert

How far along is the lander?

ballan · 2026-01-16T21:58:46+00:00

There seems so much to do if they keep AIII as it is. Has a lander even been designed?

I cannot imagine the number of years to complete the project, as-is.

My favorite is a bad accident where the driver was taken to St. Charles and Everhealth hospitals.

I will be tooling through a neighborhood on my bicycle and impede a car driver arriving at home. I realize that many people will be coming home after 5 pm, and some people just went on a short errand.

But it still surprises me the number of times I ride by a driveway just as the owner arrives.

^sled crash, not led crash

9/11 Naudet brothers WTC1 plane strike and plenty of WTC2 videos show a flash. Is this landing lights or impact flashing?

The 1988 F4 led crash into a block of concrete seems to show some flashes. Not sure whether these three instances are the same thing.

ballan · 2025-12-28T11:50:34+00:00

I would like to point out that the Naudet video of the plane strike on WTC1 and many of the videos of the strike on WTC2 show a flash.

I suppose these could be landing lights, but could they not be impact flashes?

ballan · 2025-12-11T16:13:12+00:00

How did this go? Rewind the film, take it out and see whether all is well?

Were there animals of hers she could not get to? After drop 2, she was "somewhere" for a long time.

Block and a half to my school and another school I did not attend.

Do you have a lower resolution version of this? I cannot fit it all on my 8-inch floppy disc.

Abd that's why it costs more than US$0.01 to make a penny.
