An Orbiting Spacesuit With Transmitter
by bucy at 4:18 pm EST, Jan 29, 2006 |
In what might resemble a horrifying moment in a science fiction film, astronauts aboard the International Space Station will toss an empty spacesuit overboard next week. The Russian suit will carry three batteries and a ham radio transmitter and antenna. Amateur radio operators on Earth will be able to listen to its transmissions over several days until the batteries fail.
