Thank you. There on your screen oh, camera view change, that is a view from go navigator the recovery velocity. The two fast boats out there. Getting to getting ready to basically excuse me. Install the rigging equipment required to hoist dragon out water. One the other fast boat is collecting the hair parachutes from the water. To bring them back on board with us. We should see one of the team members crawl up on to the side of the capsule in order to install that install the rigging like i mentioned. That particular team member is highly experienced and highly trained. As you can imagine. Climb on the ground top of an oddlyshaped thing in, you know, the ocean, could be a little tricky. So this person has undergone a lot hours and hours of training and certification in order to perform this very important task. There on the righthand side of your screen screen we can see the second fast boat approaching. Of course both of these boats needed to wait for their cue from the Water Recover
By that point, all the rigging will be affixed and they will be able to use the hydraulic lift on the back of the vessel to begin to pull dragon out of the water. Bob and doug did report they are seeing the guys climbing around outside their window of the capsule. Still doing good from all of their reports. We are going to see the vessel continued to close in. It is a little over 1. 3 nautical miles away. You can see things starting to sharpen up as the view does draw closer. One thing i did not get to mention is the sequence events was happening, just before the drogue deployment, the seats rotated to about 26 degrees. If you think back to when we saw bob and doug when they were in orbit and during the departure burns, they were closer to on their backs at the 40 degree position where they were looking up at the top of dragging capsule. Their stomachs were facing the top nosecone. At this point, the seats would have rotated. They are in a little more of an upright position. That is do
Spacecraft, but everything looking good. We are five minutes into the de orbit burn. The dragon was flying 260 statute miles off the coast of australia. During this burn we heard a call we are halfway through and everything is looking great. Dougg this burn bob and are currently monitoring the de orbit tool which captures the reentry interface, how much distance remains before the burn itself is terminated, they are monitoring burn duration and the firing of the draco thrusters located on the forward bulkhead of the capsule. On your screen you can see what bob and doug are seeing. On the left and right of the Center Screen is the de orbit monitoring tool. Just past seven minutes into overurn and a little four minutes to go. Continuing to be on track for our splashdown. At splashdown time is right 11 48 a. M. And 24 seconds pacific. Is 18 48 universal. We are through the major steps to initiate reentry, the trunk burn hasthe deorbit begun. We have three and a half minutes remaining. On
Again, now, were expecting 20 minutes for the for the main recovery vessel to go navigator to reach dragon. By that point the rigging will be fixed and they use at frame lift on the back and the end of dragon up out of the water. They got them climbing around and getting that fixed. Still doing good from all of their reports and were going to see the vessel continue to close in. It is 1. 3 nautical miles still away. You see things sharpen up as it does draw up closer. One thing i didnt get to mention as the sequence was happening, everything was going so quickly, just before the drove deployment, the seats rotated to 25 degrees and if you think of bob and doug while they were still on orbit and during the orbit burn and departure burns, they were laying closer to on their backs and they were essentially looking up at the tap. They were at the top of the nose cone. Now the seats would be rotated and theyre in more upright position and thats done to insure that the load is experienced fr
Start be coping government says the hydroelectric dam is vital for the development of this immense landlocked country just a population of around 108000000 the country plans to expulsion kristie across the region and says the dam will stop seasonal flooding in neighboring sudan. But egypt says there are a number of outstanding legal issues that need resolving and filling the reservoir too quickly could reduce its water supply and may pose an existential threat and egypt does have legitimate concerns i mean that egypt relies on our 90 percent of its fresh water needs and the largest share of the river runs through each direction territory and what we have has had in egypt is a situation where they have a significant gap between the amount of water they produce and the amount of water they consume. And with a rapidly growing population of iran 100000000. To this problem only getting worse ethiopia also has strong claims because its the source of the blue nile the largest of the river gna
