Ham Satellite Deployment, Aug 2011
Loading...
Uploaded by ac5cv on Aug 3, 2011
Excerpts from the first 30 minutes of a ~6-hr spacewalk by Russian Cosmonauts Sergei Volkov and Alexander Samokutyaev, during which they attempted to deploy ARISSat-1: an amateur radio micro-satellite assembled by AMSAT, ARISS, and RSC-Energia. You can see several good shots showing them handling the satellite--maybe a little too roughly! (Watch out for those solar panels, guys!!!) But just as they were about to push the satellite away, someone noticed that it was supposed to have two antennas, not one. So, the video ends with the satellite tethered outside the station and the spacewalkers moving onto their next task. Eventually, several hours later, the satellite *was* deployed with just the one antenna, hoping for the best! (Thanks to NASA-HD Video, and the Russian translator!)

seems not a very professional deployment... or maybe the satellite should be more rugged next time...

Is the entire spacewalk video available anywhere on the NASA site or elsewhere?

They almost broke the VHF antenna off several times. The UHF antenna probably was on there and it's floating in space somewhere. Looks like the loading coil is on there for it. Wonder how much it will cost to reinstall a 70cm antenna now that it has been deployed? Oh well, I'm sitting here monitoring 145.950 waiting for the next pass to see if I can receive the SSTV broadcast.
Thanks for posting.
