We recently had the pleasure of hosting Ryan Hartnett III and his entourage here at Guanajuato.  As you may remember, Mr. Hartnett III was instrumental in breaking our original launch story and we were glad to have him back.  While he was here he conducted an interview with Jupiter’s Ghost mission commander, Macon Cook.  You can see the interview in its entirety below.

In association with GAIA, Ryan Hartnett the 3rd recently interviewed the crew of the Heracles live just before their exit of the solar system!  Check it out!

GAIA director, William Brighton, held a press conference today to reveal the details of the GAIA mission dubbed Jupiter’s Ghost.  We’ll be sure to have more information over the coming days.  Stay tuned!

The neutral buoyancy tanks were in full use today as some of our astronauts tried on their space legs.  The buoyance of the water is a perfect way to simulate EVA (extra-vehicular activity).  Here in our picture you see astronauts Macon Cook and Mark Dickinson in our largest tank with a mockup of an as yet unnamed space vehicle.  This tank holds 22.7 million gallons of water along with whatever gear needs to be mounted for training sessions.  It looks like these two astronauts are passing with flying colors!
