Flight dates are in! We'll be at JSC August 10-18 to fly that damn space robot. I don't think anyone who reads this is in the area, but if you are, we'll have plenty of spare time that week.

Well, yeah. But we actually have it working (kind of) right now. In one axis. I still need to write the code to network across all three computers, but that's pretty simple. There are no hardware changes remaining, though there is talk of redoing the frame just cause it's ugly. And I need to work on anodization some more to reclaim the orange look for the new aluminum thruster cones.

I like to be on the cutting edge. Even if it is the cutting edge of 10,000 years ago. :)

So Astronaut totally beats Caveman, right?

I guess... it really depends on who gets the drop. If Astronaut is just walking down the road, and caveman is all SNEAKATLATL!

Tragically, RPS 25 (http://www.umop.com/rps25.htm) has neither Astronaut nor Caveman gestures.
