Yesterday was another in a series of several days in which a wide variety of things were happening. I have pictures of the results of my many hours of painstakingly neat cable routing. The CSBF electronics folks brought over the Universal Terminate Package (UTP), and made some lights light up. CREAM, the other payload here right now was outside on their deck, so I grabbed some pictures of that. Their experiment shipped mostly in one box that just had to be opened and tested. Lots of other things happened, that I don’t have pictures of.
-
- Nick tests a connector on the pivot box
-
- Laura takes a look too
-
- Controller, motor, and shaft of the HWPR drive
-
- The Manifold
-
- Motorized valve on the cryostat
-
- Cable routing, a the densest part by the ACSBOB and computer
-
- The secret to awesome routing: velcro straps
-
- Cables routed to the side, between the flight computer and serial hub
-
- Transmitter plate. Used to read “Do not step on”, until Matt and I got too grammatically aggravated
-
- The excess “On”s also works as “No”s
-
- Several boxes of the UTP: main box, not-flight watt meter, squib firer, and tilt sensor
-
- Tom connects it up
-
- Main UTP box. You can tell it’s flown before
-
- Flight suspension ladder, with cable to UTP along it
-
- Battery boxes, recycled into handy toolbox
-
- Lit Light. Very gratifying
-
- Cable-tab matching symbols: circle, triangle, smiley, velociraptor
-
- Matt uses proper hoist handle signals to tell Nick to lower the crane
-
- Then it devolves into the somewhat less proper hoist-lowering-dance
-
- Upstairs, mylarization continues
-
- Uncovered back sides at a joint
-
- CREAM
-
- CREAM and Ladder
-
- On our deck, Joseph tests the GPS
-
- 10psi hose fitting: Matt’s hand
