Those types of launches. With the influx of orbital launches that have begun filling up the qeue, there are more than just sounding rockets which also have to be monitored.
Same with the drone that does regular flights to the arctic to study ice movement and changes in temperatures. Though most work is done via Satellites, when it comes to tracking and final approach configuration, they have their own data channels that have to be monitored and checked regularly.

I like to think the low amount of posting is because this place got a bad rap for having just homework boards, I hugboxes (Seriously, why even take those tests? They mean nothing. I've never taken one in my life but look at me.) and "My degree is the best" type boards.

That all being said, I prefer to keep a spaceflight general thread relevant to only the spaceflight discussions. If people wanna have pissing contests over which one is better, I personally consider those off topic and do not contribute to the discussion. That's why, if you see such, mark it and hide it. That's what I'm going to do.

My only regret is that more in depth rules couldn't exist to prompt people to act like the adults they are.

Anyways, this will be the last update for me tonight. I will check in with the board, do a blurb about any new news, and then off to work and the likes.

Flight out.
