		Anderson also transferred and stowed the equipment for the Anomalous Long Term Effects in Astronauts' Central Nervous System payload, an experiment which measures the effect of the exposure of crew members to cosmic radiation.
		Flight Engineer Oleg Kotov performed maintenance on the station's exercise treadmill, repairing its roller bearings, and conducted a repressurizaton of oxygen using the tanks in the docked ISS Progress 24 cargo craft.
		Progress 24 will undock from the Pirs docking compartment on Aug. 1, burning up in the Earth’s atmosphere as it deorbits.

	ISS Transits
		With the advent of easy to use prediction software such as Calsky and Thomas Fly's ISS Transit Alert Service it is now possible to plan is advance to video both Solar and Lunar transits by the ISS.
		While this is simpler in some respects than tracking the ISS in real time (since you know where to point the telescope in advance) is does require that you have a fast video camera (most transits are 0.5 seconds or so i.e.
		Because the ISS is barely visible on the captured video I have presented the results here as a hand drawn dot in the position from each frame as I can best judge it.

	Photographic Observations of the ISS
		Then it should also be possible to hold the ISS centered in the finder and capture it with the webcam.
		Luckily, the ISS is very bright (this method of imaging does not work with fainter satellites!).
		As it is an extended object, the required exposure time depends on the sensitivity of the CCD chip and the focal ratio of the telescope being used.

	Simultaneous transit of Venus and the International Space Station
		It's recommended that, to observe a transit of Venus by the ISS, you locate as near the transit path as possible (e.g., 10 to 100 meters).
		The likely 3D orientation of the ISS, as it passes in front of the Sun in the area of Milan, Italy, is depicted below by the ISS VRML simulator^, developed by Mike Tyrrell^ and Phil Masding^; it will be traveling in the direction of the green line.
		For a high-elevation pass, the ISS will be about 410 km / 255 mi distant, and the 73 meter / 240 foot width of its main solar panels will have an angular size of about 37" of arc (if oriented perpendicular to the line of sight).

		The International Space Station (ISS) assembly consists of the energy and control block FGB "Zarya", the U.S. connecting module "Unity", the Russian Service Module "Zvezda" and the first element, Z1, of the future solar-array-carrying truss, on top of the Node Unity.
		During Shuttle mission 3A (STS-92), the third docking adapter PMA-3 was also added, followed in the next mission, 4A (STS-97), by the second truss element, the photovoltaic module P6 which was mounted on top of the Z1 where it deployed two gigantic solar array wings measuring 240 feet tip-to-tip.
		It is visible to the naked eye as a bright star in the morning or evening sky, appearing or disappearing at the horizon or in Earth’s shadow, if the sky is without overcast and haze.

	APRS FAQ
		This ISS packet operation joins the constellation of other AX.25 1200 baud packet digipeaters such as PCSAT-1 and PCSAT2 and hopefully some day, ECHO (AO-51) currently on orbit.
		ISS PMS SYSTEM: The PMS (Personal Message System) on ISS was functional and allowed users to send and receive message to the crew.
		Since ISS Digipeater is NOT conjested over 70% of the earths surface, it makes an ideal HAM radio Space Communications Link for stations in remote areas or on the high seas.

		Z-axis is pointing along the radius-vector connecting the ISS center of mass with the center of the Earth.
		A vehicle-centered system, this frame has the X-axis pointing at the center of the solar disk, the Z-axis perpendicular to the plane of the ecliptic and pointing toward the celestial pole, and the Y-axis completing the right-hand system.
		In this frame, the axes are set in such a way that during ISS flight in this coordinate system, the integral value of the disturbing torques per one orbit is minimal.

	ESA - Human Spaceflight - International Space Station - About the International Space Station
		The first European to serve a tour of duty on the ISS, Umberto Guidoni, went on mission to the ISS in April 2001.
		Just because the ISS is growing into the brightest object in the night sky - after the moon - it is easy to forget that much of the project's people and hardware are based not out in space but firmly on the ground.
		Right now, Europe's participation in the ISS means that throughout ESA's Member States, thousands of Europe's brightest people at hundreds of universities and high-technology companies are working on the leading edge of 21st-century science and engineering.

	"Power to the ISS!"
		Electricity keeps the ISS and its crew alive: It powers the air and water systems, keeps the lights on, pumps liquids for recycling, warms meals, runs computers.
		ISS power is a bit different from the electricity delivered to homes on Earth, though.
		Such heat must be eliminated, so the ISS power system uses liquid ammonia radiators to dissipate the heat away from the spacecraft.

		It may be floating in the serene silence of space, but the International Space Station (ISS) will be so noisy inside that astronauts could miss warning signals and have their hearing damaged.
		The first module of the ISS, Zarya, was launched in November 1998.
		The Russian service module in which the astronauts will live during construction of the ISS will also be noisy.

		This image is a stack of the frames showing the ISS, combined using K3CCDtools and the "add if lighter" option.
		The image was obtained despite thick cloud which rendered the event invisible to the naked eye.
		As a consequence, maximum gain and a slow shutter speed of 1/50th sec had to be used, which has trailed the ISS images.

		The Russian rocket and space corporation Energiya has circulated a press release saying that the Council on Tuesday approved the Energiya- proposed schedule for preparing a Soyuz TM space vehicle and training the long-duration crew that is to be first to head for the ISS.
		The Council has also drawn up plans for launching Russian supply rockets to the ISS this year, for equipping the Russian segment of the ISS and for implementing the station's flight program.
		The chief designers said that Energiya and the enterprises involved in the ISS project have tapped out their financial resources under Russia's ISS-related commitments, as a result of which the work to implement the project may be put on ice.
