I think we would all love to try the brute force approach right about now!! Have no idea if it is wise ... but it would sure feel good.

Stored energy inside the telescope in a tight space is the primary concern.

Goddard saying it took 60 pounds of pull to break the bolt off.

Wow, they just simulated it at Goddard and it took 60 lbs of pressure to snap it off.

That was a single pull without moving it back and forth to fatigue the bolt first

Could someone translate this into a SI unit for me. Should be Newton (N).

Sorry to interrupt the flow of the posts, but how come he is able to move so fast between sites? Shouldn't he be using the "always tethered" rule? I didn't see him using the tethers from the tool box back to telescope.
If you can redirect to a simple answer thanks!!

20 Joules - that's Newton metre, not Newton, they are really talking energy not force.
(and 60 lb is 267 N)
