RADAR CHAOS HAWAII EDITION - INSTRUCTIONS
Radar Chaos Hawaii Edition is a serious game. Air Traffic Controllers often regard their work as a 'three dimensional chess game'. The idea is to give the user a taste of real-world air traffic control. It is not like conventional games. There is no 'game over', nor are the levels sequential. You simply choose where you would like to work, and how busy you would like to be. As in the real world of air traffic control, you must strive to move aircraft as efficiently as possible, minimizing delays, avoiding conflicts and midair collisions, and giving pilots their appropriate route and altitude at all times.
You will find this game fun and challenging by it's demand for awareness and visualization. It can be a frustrating experience, and often too stressful for some. However, it's a great game for those who want something serious, requiring thought. This isn't a game. It's designed upon real-world procedures.
Guide arrivals and departures to their destinations while maintaining the required separation between all aircraft and avoid terrain. If you haven't tried the original Radar Chaos, it's a suggested first step. If you have not tried the original, don't despair. You can get yourself up-to-speed with these instructions.
Pilot voice responses can be heard in this simulation, with the option of disabling sound.
In addition to providing separation to aircraft, your job is to clear all aircraft direct their outbound waypoint (depicted by the solid red route line), at their final altitude (specified in red within the aircraft's control panel).
To play this simulation, access an aircraft's control panel by clicking on it's tiny white square. In the image above, you will notice flight information (Delta Flight 137, Heading is 246, altitude is flight level 400, speed is mach .80, proceeding direct MAGGI). Mileage to the next waypoint can be turned on or off, as can the aircraft's future path. More on these two features below.
At the bottom right corner of the screen, you will see a tab called "Flight Data". Click on it and it brings up information about every flight. At a glance you can see what altitude and routing every aircraft has been given. You also can see what's coming next.
At the bottom of the screen is the game information bar. It shows you what your safety and efficiency rating is, as well as the number of planes moved and time played. You will also find controls that look similar to a music player. The game can be paused, fast-forwarded and stopped. Voice can be turned on or off, and a radar information overlay can be shown or hidden. At the bottom left corner of the screen are buttons to display 'future paths' and 'mileage' for all aircraft in your control. More about these below.
When an aircraft enters or leaves your airspace, responsibility for controlling that aircraft must go with it. When you receive an aircraft from an adjacent sector, you will see a flashing H. You must click this H to accept responsibility for that aircraft. Only then will that air traffic controller give the aircraft to you. An aircraft will call you approximately 10 seconds after you accept the handoff.
When an aircraft is leaving your airspace, you must open the aircraft's control panel and click "HANDOFF". You will observe a solid H, which means the adjacent air traffic controller has not yet accepted your handoff. Once the H begins flashing, the adjacent controller has accepted your handoff, and you may now switch the aircraft to that controller by clicking "SWITCH" in the aircraft control panel.
It is easy to see what must be done with each aircraft, by checking it's control panel. The panel shows you what waypoint to direct the aircraft to, as well as what altitude to assign. There is no need to memorize routes and altitudes.
Arrivals are different. They require some special handling. Before an aircraft can land on a runway, it must establish itself on an ILS approach path with your help. The ILS paths are red dotted lines. Aircraft must intercept these ILS paths by the following rules:
Maximum intercept angle of 30 degrees;
Level at 3000 feet;
Intercept at least 10 miles from the airport (indicated by a red < symbol);
Must be given an "approach clearance";
If you want to get fancy, you can make the aircraft intercept at only 7 miles, provided they are level at 2000 feet.
In the image above, we have a localizer that is 080 degrees. That means the intercept angle should be 050 degrees (or 110 degrees if coming from the other side of the localizer). Watch the vectoring video below.
There are three types of control that you can provide to aircraft in this application: direction, altitude and speed. These are implemented by clicking on an aircraft, which displays the control interface. Initially, when you 'mouse over' an airplane you will see a red line, which indicates the aircraft's route. Once you click, you will see the control interface.
An aircraft's direction (or 'heading') is controlled by simply dragging the red arrow to the desired direction. This simulation can be played without the need for many heading assignments, as most controllers will separate traffic by altitude first. The "Direct" button is often all the directional instruction needed. Heading assignments (or "vectors") are required to establish aircraft on the runway arrival path (ILS).
Altitude is assigned by 1,000 foot increments, by tapping the up/down buttons. Speed is assigned by 10 knot increments, by tapping the fast/slow buttons. Aircraft that are above 25000 are generally flying 'mach speed', which is somewhat different from 'air speed' in that it relates to an absolute value equivalent to that of the sound barrier, roughly 660 miles per hour.
As a shortcut, you do not need to click 'submit', but simply 'mouse away' from the interface. The interface will close and all control assignments will then be applied to that aircraft.
INDICATED AIRSPEED VS TRUE AIRSPEED
One thing new ATC sim enthusiasts quickly notice is the disparity between the airspeed that has been assigned to an aircraft, and the speed value shown on the aircraft's data tag. Indicated Airspeed is the value a pilot sees on their instruments, and is simply measuring air pressure, like a tire pressure gauge does. This indicated value underreads with an increase in altitude, since air becomes thinner at higher altitudes. When a pilot attempts to maintain an assigned airspeed, it's true speed is greater. So an aircraft at 3000 feet will fly a speed that is approximately 10 knots greater than assigned, and an aircraft at 10,000 feet will fly a speed that is approximately 50 knots greater than assigned.
This takes some getting used to. It is the system used in the real world. You may have tried other simulations that omit this. In our opinion, it's not a real ATC simulation if it does not employ this speed model.
MACH VS AIRSPEED
If an aircraft flies high enough, airspeed becomes almost useless. An aircaft at a typical cruise altitude of 37000 (Flight level 370) will have a speed of 450 knots, but their airspeed indicator will register only 250 knots. At altitudes above approximately 25000 feet (flight level 250), pilots will fly based on mach speed instead of indicated airspeed. Mach speed is the measure of an aircraft's speed in relation to the speed of sound.
ADVANCED READING (OPTIONAL)
If an aircraft's ideal cruise mach speed is .80 and they commence a descent for landing, their indicated airspeed will gradually increase as they enter thicker air. If the pilot maintains mach .80, the airspeed will eventually reach the aircraft's maximum "never exceed" airspeed - the maximum speed that guarantees that wings and other pieces of an aircraft will not fall off. This varies, but is typically 330 knots. At this point during descent for landing, a pilot must maintain this airspeed, and allow it's mach speed to decrease.
This mach-airspeed transition is something to consider in our simulation. If an aircraft is descending from it's cruise altitude with an assigned mach speed (say you assigned them mach .75 because of traffic), it becomes rather meaningless once they've transitioned to airspeed. If your intention is to make an arriving aircraft fly slower, you would therefore have to assign a mach speed as well as a transition speed (say mach .70, and transition at 270 knots). This probably seems complicated. Don't even worry about it while you are learning this simulation. When you reach the point where you consider yourself an advanced player, go ahead and give an assigned transition speed.
When you tell a Boeing 737 to change heading, altitude or speed, it requires time for things to actually happen. This can be frustrating for the 'newbie' who knows nothing of air traffic control. After you give a pilot an instruction, expect to wait up to 15 seconds before you actually see a response to this. In particular, speed changes require time. In this simulation, responses are accelerated slightly. In real life, changes take even longer to happen.
When a pilot is told to descend from 9000 feet down to 3000 feet, the pilot requires 5 seconds to reach forward and make the adjustment to the autopilot control interface. The aircraft then gently reduces engine power and lowers it's nose, which requires another 5 seconds. By the time you observe any change on the radar display, 15 seconds have gone by and you may be wondering if the pilot even heard the instruction.
In the real world of air traffic control there are separation requirements that must exist between each and every aircraft. It is not simply enough for aircraft to 'miss each other'. There are two basic types of separation: lateral and vertical. If you have the necessary lateral separation, vertical separation is not needed, and visa verca.
LATERAL SEPARATION: In this application you must maintain a lateral distance of at least 3 miles between all aircraft, unless vertical separation exists. In the high-level sectors, this requirement is 5 miles.
VERTICAL SEPARATION: You must maintain a vertical distance of at least 1000 feet between all aircraft, unless lateral separation exists.
IN-TRAIL SEPARATION: All aircraft headed for the same waypoint must be spaced by at least 10 miles, to avoid overwhelming the next air traffic controller down the line. This can be achieved by selecting an aircraft's "MILEAGE" in their control panel, which shows it's distance to the outbound waypoint. These aircraft mileage values can be compared, to ensure the minimum is achieved, through speed control or 'delay vectors'.
In the left image below, you see arriving aircraft properly spaced on the runway ILS path. In the right image below, you see aircraft with proper in-trail sequencing for MAGGI. Note the 'mileage' values at the tops of the data tags. These aircraft will all be at least 10 miles in trail of one another as they cross MAGGI.
Future paths are green, and can be selected for individual aircraft or all aircraft using the bottons at the bottom left corner of the screen. These paths show you where the aircraft will be in 2 minutes, and take into account speed, climb/descent, and heading changes. These are extremely useful for conflict avoidance.
Altitude arcs are green, and are displayed whenever the user hovers over an aircraft target. No arc is displayed for aircraft in level flight. The arc depicts where the aircraft will reach it's assigned altitude.
Route lines are red, and are displayed whenever the user hovers over an aircraft target. These paths display the route the aircraft has been assigned.
Similar to the green future paths. However, these are red in color, and automatically display whenever a future conflict exists. Specifically, the computer checks for any conflicts that will occur within the next two minutes. A 'conflict' is a situation where there is not necessarily any danger, but a likelihood of less than the required separation exists. Conflict lines take into account speed, climb/descent, and heading changes. These are extremely useful for conflict avoidance, but can easily become relied upon too much. Caution should be used. "Safety Rating" is penalized whenever these lines are present.
Conflict lines are light blue, and automatically appear between two aircraft that are in close proximity to each other. These are meant to assist the player when two aircraft have the potential to conflict.
SAFETY and EFFICIENCY values start at 50%. Each minute, these values are increased by 1%.
If a predicted conflict exists, safety gets knocked back 1% per 5 seconds.
If an aircraft gets directed into terrain, safety gets knocked back 20%.
If a loss of separation occurs, safety gets knocked back 20%.
If an collision occurs between two aircraft, safety gets knocked back 30%.
If an aircraft is handed off at the wrong altitude, efficiency gets knocked back 10%.
If an arrival is not landed, efficiency gets knocked back 10%.
If an arrival is not given the correct routing, efficiency gets knocked back 10%.
If an aircraft is not properly handed off, efficiency gets knocked back 10%.
If an aircraft is not switched after a handoff, efficiency gets knocked back 5%.
Exessive control instructions reduce the efficiency rating.
SEQUENCING HIGH LEVEL TRAFFIC

Victoria Pedraza | 2/1/2024
Amelia Earhart's impact on the world of aviation is an indelible testament to her courage and adventurous spirit. Born in the heartland of America in 1897, in Atchison, Kansas, Earhart's fascination with flight began at an early age. Her journey, however, was no ordinary one. In an era when aviation was predominantly a male domain, Earhart fearlessly charted her course through the skies, defying societal expectations. Her groundbreaking achievements, such as becoming the first female aviator to fly solo across the Atlantic Ocean, were not just milestones for her but represented a giant leap forward for women in aeronautics. Amelia Earhart emerged as a symbol of tenacity, proving that the sky was not the limit for women with dreams as vast as the horizon.
Yet, amidst her triumphs, the narrative of Amelia Earhart takes a mysterious turn. The pinnacle of her aviation career was shadowed by the inexplicable disappearance during her daring attempt to circumnavigate the globe in 1937. This unexpected turn of events transformed Earhart from a celebrated aviator into an enduring enigma. The circumstances surrounding her vanishing act have fueled endless speculation, creating a captivating mystery that has persisted for decades. The very uncertainty of her fate has added layers to the legacy of Amelia Earhart, turning her into an iconic figure whose life and disappearance continue to captivate the imagination of people across the globe.
Amelia Earhart's story resonates not only as a tale of personal triumph but as a beacon of inspiration for future generations. Her fearless pursuit of dreams, coupled with the undeniable mark she left on aviation, has empowered countless women to soar to new heights. The mystery surrounding her disappearance serves as a poignant reminder that even in the face of uncertainty, the spirit of adventure and the pursuit of dreams are forces that transcend time. Amelia Earhart's legacy endures as a narrative of courage, achievement, and the enduring allure of the unexplored skies.
Amelia Earhart's early life laid the foundation for the extraordinary career that would unfold against the backdrop of the aviation revolution. Born in the heartland of America in 1897, Earhart's curiosity about the skies was ignited at a young age. Growing up in Atchison, Kansas, she was captivated by the daredevil aviators who took to the air in the nascent days of flight. This early fascination with aviation became the spark that ignited a lifelong passion, propelling her toward a destiny that would transcend the conventional roles assigned to women in the early 20th century.
In a time when societal norms were rigidly defined, Earhart courageously challenged the status quo by venturing into the male-dominated realm of aviation. Driven by an unwavering determination, she sought to unravel the mysteries of the skies and earn her place among the pioneering aviators of her time. Her groundbreaking achievements were not only a testament to her skill but also a resounding declaration that gender should never be a barrier to pursuing one's aspirations. The turning point came when Earhart achieved the remarkable feat of becoming the first female aviator to fly solo across the treacherous expanse of the Atlantic Ocean. This milestone not only showcased her mastery of aviation but also shattered preconceived notions about the capabilities of women in a field traditionally dominated by men.

Why was she important?
Amelia Earhart's significance transcends the realm of aviation, positioning her as a symbol of empowerment and a catalyst for social change. Beyond the accolades of record-breaking flights, Earhart emerged as a trailblazer who shattered the glass ceiling of gender norms, leaving an enduring impact on the trajectory of women's empowerment.
At a time when societal expectations dictated restrictive roles for women, Earhart fearlessly challenged the status quo. Her achievements in aviation served as more than personal triumphs; they became a rallying point for women aspiring to break free from the constraints of traditional gender roles. As a symbol of empowerment, Earhart inspired countless individuals to pursue their dreams with unwavering determination, irrespective of gender barriers.
Amelia Earhart's commitment to the cause of women's rights extended beyond the cockpit. Recognizing the power of her platform, she became a tireless advocate for gender equality, using her influence to challenge ingrained beliefs that certain professions were reserved exclusively for men. By speaking out against societal limitations and advocating for women's rights, Earhart not only paved the way for women in aviation but also became a beacon of hope for those striving to defy expectations in various fields.
In the realm of aviation, Earhart's achievements were transformative. By proving that women could excel in a field traditionally dominated by men, she not only dismantled stereotypes but also opened doors for future generations of female pilots and astronauts. Earhart's legacy continues to inspire women worldwide, reminding them that the sky is not the limit, but rather a canvas upon which they can paint their dreams, unburdened by societal constraints. Her impact on the ongoing journey toward gender equality remains a testament to the enduring power of individual determination to reshape the course of history.

For aviation and travel geeks alike, one of the biggest travel stories over the past year has been the roll out of Boeing’s new 787 Dreamliner aircraft.
The plane has been celebrated for its environmental advancements and innovative design. Boeing says that the 787 uses up to 20% less CO2 than similar aircraft, and has a 40% smaller noise footprint at takeoff. Half of the structure is made from carbon fiber composite material, which is more resistant to fatigue and corrosion (which means the planes will last longer).
More important to passengers, the 787 is pressurized to a lower altitude – 6,000 feet instead of 8,000 – which should reduce the dryness and fatigue that many people experience on long haul flights. The plane also has 40% larger windows and dynamic lighting (no pull down shields!) that should also help with jet lag.
After significant delays, the airlines that ordered the first planes have been receiving them and putting them into service. All Nippon Airways of Japan (ANA) was the inaugural airline to start using the Dreamliners, launching in Tokyo on Oct. 26, 2011. They were followed by Japan Airlines this year, who has been flying Tokyo-Boston on 787s since April. Ethiopian Airlines took delivery of its first Dreamliner earlier this month.
Now comes LAN, the first airline in the Americas to get its Dreamliner. In all, the South American airline has ordered 32 planes that will be phased in over the next 10 years (at a cost of roughly $4.9 billion). Routes during the first year that will use the aircraft include Santiago, Buenos Aires, Lima, Los Angeles, Madrid and Frankfurt.
(The first U.S. airline to get Dreamliners will be United, which just this week announced that it would be flying the aircraft on some domestic routes this fall before it goes into international service).
This morning, I had a chance to tour the interior of one of LAN’s Dreamliners before it took a press flight to Santiago. I have taken LAN long haul flights twice before, to Easter Island and to Chilean Patagonia, so I was interested to see if the inside would really feel different. While some of the new features that the 787 has are standard, the airlines have the option of customizing them or adding new seat configurations.
One major feature that LAN embraced is the open “dome” that passengers see when they walk on the plane. It’s a major feature of Boeing’s design as it makes the entire aircraft feel more airy, even in economy. As you go down the aisle to your seat, there’s none of that cramped feeling that you normally get – or at least it feels that way – because you have more space over your head.
(Not all airlines buying 787s went with this option; United, for example, elected not to get the dome or change its seat configuration significantly from the 777s that it already has).
Another 787 innovation is the overhead bins, which were specifically designed so every passenger could bring on a roller bag. Although they are 30 percent bigger, it seems like they are less intrusive than the ones on the current planes.
LAN is also using the new planes to put forward a brighter color scheme inspired by South America. Even passengers in economy class will get a blanket, for example.
That being said, I’d still envy those in premium business in their lie-flat beds and massaging chairs!
Currently, I don’t have any upcoming flights scheduled on a 787. After seeing the Dreamliner today, though, I felt a little sad that I don’t. One thing is for sure: My next long haul to Europe is going to seem a little drearier, now that I know what else is out there.


21-year-old pilot Taylor Hash was on only her third solo flight on March 24th when the unthinkable happened: part of her landing gear fell off the plane and tumbled to the earth below.
“It was definitely the scariest moment I’ve had, probably in my life,” Hash told TODAY of the ordeal. She felt panicked as she realized she would have to land her plane without her front wheel, and hurriedly radioed air traffic control for help.
Flying nearby, veteran pilot and former SpaceX executive Chris Yates was astonished when he witnessed Hash’s landing gear fall off her plane. When he heard her transmission to air traffic control, he was struck by the fact that her first name, Taylor, was the same as his daughter’s. Yates immediately felt paternal toward the young pilot, and his dad mode kicked in. So, he says, did his emotions.
“I didn’t respond on the radio because I just couldn’t even talk,” he said. “I was welled up. I was thinking of my daughter and just how afraid and alone [Hash] probably felt,” he told TODAY.
After getting his emotions under control, Yates reached out to Taylor via radio.
“Taylor, this is Chris,” he said. “My daughter’s name is Taylor and I taught her to fly. We’re going to be just fine, kiddo.”
Hash said just those few words of kindness were what she needed to keep her cool.
“You can really tell how my voice went from frantic, ‘What am I going to do?’ to, ‘OK, I can do this,’ and that was 100% all thanks to him,” Hash said of Yates’ introduction.


A Merge Between 2 Companies Are a Step Closer to Becoming the Second-Largest Aerospace Company
Aerospace company United Technologies, including defense contractor Raytheon, is one step close to becoming the second-largest aerospace company as shareholders accepted an alliance of the two businesses.
The companies collectively announced on Friday that shareholders “voted overwhelmingly” to approve all of the proposals essential for a “merger of equals” between UTC and Raytheon. The combined business could be valued second only after Boeing in the industry, properly over $100 billion.
Tom Kennedy, Raytheon’s chairman, and CEO stated he was pleased that shareholders voted to assist the merger.
This merged company has been tentatively named Raytheon Technologies Corporation. Also, the leadership of UTC and Raytheon has stated it’ll produce advanced technology within the aerospace and defense industries. UTC makes engines for Airbus planes and the F-35 fighter jet. Raytheon makes Patriot missiles and Tomahawk, space suits, and other technology.
The companies stated they would include the final shareholder vote leads to their respective Securities and Exchange Commission filings as soon as they have been certified.
The deal is anticipated to close in the first half of the 2020 year, considering they get regulatory approval.
When the transaction goes through, UTC shareholders will own about 57 % of the merged company, and Raytheon shareholders will own nearly 43 %. Raytheon shareholders will receive 2.3348 shares in the merged business for every Raytheon share they own.


On Friday 14 September, Kartik Kumar, a P.hD. student at the Faculty of Aerospace at TU Delft came to visit the year 6 students and share his passion for space. The year 6 students are currently learning about the solar system and it was great to see their enthusiasm.
Kartik gave a quick course on what humans have done in space so far and what is currently going on in the space industry. He also shared some of his projects like the testing of space suits in Austria for usage on Mars in the near future. The PYP 6 class found his chat truly inspiring and they came up with really interesting questions for their inquiry learning like:
- Why is the space dark?
- What happens to all the junk in space?
- How can you go to the toilet using the space suit?
- What is radiation?
The children will keep working on their research in this inquiry journey and we want to thank Kartik for inspiring us to keep learning more about space.

Saturday, March 01, 2008
TITUSVILLE, Fla. — Two people were killed and two others were critically injured after two small planes collided, then burst into flames at a central Florida airpark Saturday, the Federal Aviation Administration said.
One airplane was apparently trying to land when it crashed into another plane on the ground around 8:30 a.m. at the Arthur Dunn Airpark in Titusville, said Scott Gaenicke, public information officer and division chief for Titusville Fire and Emergency Medical Services.
The collision engulfed both planes in flames, said FAA spokesman Warren Woodberry.
The plane on the ground appeared to be taxiing to a ramp area when the other plane slammed into it. Two people who were in the plane that had left the runway were killed, authorities said.
The other plane cartwheeled for about 100 yards before landing belly-up on a grass median at the airport. Bystanders aided two people who were in that plane, which also caught fire. They were flown to Orlando Regional Medical Center with severe burns.

In March, Lockheed Martin and DARPA conducted a successful test of Lockheed Martin’s Hypersonic Attack Cruise Missile [HACM] powered by a scramjet.
Although the information has not been officially released, experts say that during the HACM test it reached a speed just above Mach 5 at an altitude of 65,000 feet and a distance of 300 miles. At these parameters, this means that the missile has reached its final destination in less than 5 minutes.
According to US sources, the test was performed on the west coast of the United States. The missile was fired from aboard the B-52 Stratofortress bomber. The missile propulsion process was two-step – a rocket booster provided conventional acceleration, and a Lockheed Martin scramjet provided maximum speed to the final destination.
The development of hypersonic weapons is under the auspices of DARPA. This test is actually the second success for the agency. The first was held a few months ago with a missile HAWC built by Raytheon and also powered by a scramjet, but built by Northrop Grumman. Raytheon and Lockheed are fighting for the design, development, and production of next-generation hypersonic missiles.
The tests are important because they assess the behavior of the rocket after it is powered by jet engines to achieve hypersonic speeds. These missiles fly like planes in a stable trajectory. This allows them to be highly maneuverable, which helps to avoid being intercepted by an enemy anti-aircraft missile system. Experts from around the world say there is currently no technology that can intercept a hypersonic missile.
The use of scramjet is also key to American defense. Russia and China have hypersonic missiles and are leaders in the field where hypersonic missiles have boost-glide weapons, while the United States is focusing its efforts on using scramjet-powered hypersonic missiles. If the United States succeeds in developing sustainable scramjet-powered hypersonic weapons, it will be a breakthrough in this field, as this technology has been studied for decades, but there is still no successful scramjet-powered vehicle.
DARPA says this and previous tests offer ample opportunities for US defense, as well as a choice of two excellent weapons that will ultimately be evaluated and selected by the US military, following the principle of competitiveness and operational capability to dominate the battlefield.

Americana: Air Force One
Air Force One has more than 4,000 sq. ft. of living, meeting, and office space. Uploaded by dept. kent.edu.
Technically, any Air Force airplane transporting the President of the United States is designated as Air Force One. For our purposes, though, we’re designating the two airplanes that have been customized to carry the President as a Great American Thing.
Uploaded by wikimedia.org.
The first President to fly in an airplane while in office was Franklin D. Roosevelt, who flew to great powers conferences in Casablanca and Yalta. But it wasn’t until 1962 that the plane now designated “Air Force One” had a distinctive appearance. President John Kennedy commissioned industrial designer Raymond Loewy to create a unique exterior design for the presidential Boeing 707. Using a two-tone blue color scheme with the presidential seal near the nose and an American flag on the tail, the new look received immediate popular approval.

Today, the Air Force One planes are Boeing 747 wide-bodied jets, first brought into service during the administration of George H.W. Bush. They offer more than 4,000 sq. ft. of floor space and include a bedroom, bathroom, workout room, and conference room/dining room. The President and his senior staff have offices, and the press has a separate area. Air Force One can carry up to 70 passengers and 26 crew members…

The struggle was real, yesterday (Thursday) felt like it would never end as I waited impatiently at work for my sister’s plane to land. I kept constant track of the flight status in air which probably didn’t help time go by. Just as her flight was closing in to its time to land in Hong Kong the following happened.
Look at those loops! I probably should have stopped watching the flight tracker a long time ago, but I couldn’t help myself. Needless to say she did end up landing an hour later than expected, but she did get here and that’s what matters. You can view my mini vlog of the day HERE… or here.


UW Undergrads Win NASA Habitat Design Competition | News
It's an inflatable home fit for an asteroid: Designing a prototype habitat that looks like giant tent for the next generation of space explorers, an interdisciplinary team of University of Wisconsin-Madison undergraduate students has won the NASA eXploration Habitat Academic Innovation Challenge.
The competition charges university teams to design and rapidly develop inflatable, habitable spaces NASA can integrate onto an existing demonstration laboratory. In September 2010, NASA named the UW-Madison Badger X-Loft team a finalist in the competition, along with teams from Oklahoma State University and the University of Maryland. The National Space Grant Foundation awarded each finalist initial funding of $48,000.
The UW-Madison team deployed and displayed its prototype at the NASA Johnson Space Center, Houston, June 20 through 24. For its win, the team receives an additional $10,000 and several members will spend September in Arizona, where they will test their habitat as part of a simulated astronaut mission to an asteroid in the annual NASA Desert Research and Technology Studies field test.
The Badger X-Loft prototype is approximately 13 feet tall and 16 feet in diameter. Perched atop the NASA habitat demonstration unit laboratory, the habitat can house four crew members for several days and includes a desk and chair for each person, several windows styled like a ship's portholes, and a second story "loft" with private sleeping quarters.
Led by Fred Elder, a UW-Madison adjunct professor of mechanical engineering and engineering physics, the team designed, built and tested its full-size prototype as part of a two-semester senior design course offered in engineering mechanics and astronautics.
Often, such design courses team up students in the same engineering field. However, the Badger X-Loft team included students studying engineering mechanics, mechanical engineering, textile and apparel design, and finance and economics.
Nicole Roth, who in May 2011 earned bachelor's degrees in finance and economics, served as the team's accountant. She joined the team because she saw an opportunity to gain real-world experience in her field.
In addition to Roth, other Badger X-Loft team members include Jordan Wachs, Aaron Olson, Marc Fritz, Nathan Wong, Mike Lucas, Sam Marron, Max Salick, Ariel Arnson, Will Yu, Peter Sweeney, Julie Mason, Steve Wisser and Tim Feyereisen.
