NASA ASTRONAUTS PAY TRIBUTE TO SPACEX AND GRADUATES FROM SPACE STATION

Aboard the International Space Station, Expedition 63 Commander Chris Cassidy of NASA and newly arrived crewmates Doug Hurley and Bob Behnken of NASA offered their thanks and congratulations to SpaceX officials and employees during an in-flight event from the orbital outpost June 1. Hurley and Behnken became the first American astronauts to launch on an American spacecraft from American soil in almost a decade May 31 when they lifted off aboard the SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket in the new SpaceX Crew Dragon spacecraft from the Kennedy Space Center, Florida. Hurley and Behnken spoke with Benji Reed, the SpaceX Director of Crew Mission Management, before displaying a picture flown on Crew Dragon that contained a photo mosaic of photos graduates from around the nation – honoring those who graduated this spring during the coronavirus pandemic.

https://www.nasa.gov/multimedia/nasatv/iss_ustream.html Is the source for the above photo.

Thought it worth noting that this also has ISS comm audio.

A reminder, though: the stream will be quiet for long periods, so prepare to forget that you have it on and, like me, wonder for a second why you suddenly hear Bob asking if Houston has found a spot for them to charge their iPads yet.

The crew completed a "safe haven" exercise with Dragon today.   Bob and Doug took shelter in Dragon like they would for a ISS emergency.  All went well but, as feared,  they had no wi-fi coverage with the Dragon hatch closed.  How would they manage :)

Another note from today's comm traffic.  While Bob and Doug have left the earth, a modern concern followed them into space.  They asked MCC-H what the plan was for charging their IPADs...

In today's episode of Bob and Doug's excellent adventure, the great running shoe quest.  The crew has been unable to locate the exercise shoes for both of them despite checks of numerous locations suggested by MCC-H.  I just heard one of them has resorted to using someone else's, possibly used, shoes in the interim...

cross post from Expedition 63 thread

EMU resize for Bob and Chris is scheduled as a task list item this weekend.  Are they first up in the lithium battery R/R lineup?
