Not that long since the last time this happened, right?

...

On the topic of ISS Resupply, anyone know if the H-II launch this weekend will be livestreamed?

A year and a half or so. It's been fairly reliable for most of it's history. Out of a 150 flights only 3 or 4 have failed, not counting the two that crashed into Mir.

>out of 65 flights to the ISS, 3 have failed
If people were riding that thing the body count would be awful

The expectations and degree of safety are pretty different between manned and unmanned craft.

Progress is essentially a stripped down and modified Soyuz capsule. If they were manned, there would have been safety systems to save the crew.

Looks like all 3 would have been perfectly survivable if they had been manned with an abort system

Really, unmanned should have an abort system too, if they are going to be an expensive payload

probably. NASA always livestreams ISS related shit. In fact I'll post it on Veeky Forums when it happens if you guys'd like that

why F?

...

>muh Soyuz Progress is so perfect
>first launch vehicle with two failures to ISS

F for the cargo.

It's a meme from a COD game

Is this a flow-chart of the Soviet part of the space-race?

>first launch vehicle with two failures to ISS
It's also had more successes to the ISS than every other cargo vehicle combined.

F

And just as many failures

Go for it.

What does this mean?
I don't speak moon runes.

what a rocket, fell to a swamp
what a pay, what quality of the work

what the fuck? stop using google translate

what a great rocket, it fell into a swamp
the quality of the work determines your pay

it rhymes in russian

Why would someone hammer in a screw?

wrong. it's the reverse.
What you pay is what you get.
As in shitty wage (3rd panel - refusal to pay) - don't expect quality (4th panel - hammering a screw).

That's a picture of a Soyuz not a Progress.

That's sort of the point.
