Telecon tomorrow (May 21) at our usual time: 1:30 pm Eastern (10:30 am Pacific, 19.30 European). Discussion items include: flight plans and our successful drop tests this past Sunday, light sources and light source modelling, goniometric and pre- and post-flight calibration, communications tests, new nanosat bus and payload solid models, JHU progress, computing/website, grant applications, and recap of schedules. A reminder of the CSA project timeline is attached.
Here's how to connect: 1) Open Skype on your computer (note that of course, you should first install Skype, http://www.skype.com , on your machine if you haven't already). 2) In the "Contacts" menu, add me ( jalbertuvic ) as a contact, if you haven't already. 3) Just wait for me to Skype-call you at the usual time (1:30 pm Eastern, 10:30 am Pacific). 4) If there is any trouble, or if you don't get a call for some reason and would like to join, just send me an e-mail (jalbert@uvic.ca).
Here's the tentative agenda: I) Flight plans, and a recap of our very successful drop tests on Sunday II) New diffused light source and its modelling, pre- and post-flight calibration, and goniometric calibrations III) Communications tests (possible backup optical and radio, etc) IV) New nanosat solid models from Houman and Cordell V) Progress at JHU / STScI VI) Computing/website VII) Grant applications VIII) AOB
Talk to you all tomorrow, thanks! justin
