Creating a lighter weight, more mobile, and more rip resistant suit tailor made for each astronaut at a lower cost than the old ACES suit used on the shuttle missions, is a bad thing?

Something about a pressure spike in a pump in the "alpha" Thermal Control System that transferred to a redundant "bravo" system.

Sounds like they're still go for the next burn.

Well, that was pretty damn cool.

This thing is so slick and I daresay, futuristic, compared to the shuttle tech.

The glass cockpit is breathtaking.

Both TCS systems saw a spike and reverted to min-max values (?)

Failure mitigation system handled it and now CORE is working to clear.

Initially, there was an issue with the hatch seal. Apparently there was some sort of FOD in the seal and that was cleared- then the issue resolved.

Some of these may be a “smack the panel” equivalent faults.  I know that’s an over simplification.


Interesting that they use Ammonia through radiators to cool critical systems.

Doesnt sound like it. They just now mentioned the faults were cleared and the primary Alpha system is running like normal. Scheduled burns on task.

Pumps being pumps, who knows what could've happened during launch.

They were thermal sensor faults, not pump faults if I heard the com correctly.   We will find out on the next stage burn.

Can remember it like yesterday even though I was 8 years old!!

Supposedly they will go in the next year and they will be repositioning the Dragon to make room for it.
