The Russian space agency has already spent nearly a year working to get its crew transportation missions back on track after one of its Soyuz spacecraft experienced a noteworthy coolant leak in late 2022 while it was attached to the space station. It was not immediately clear what caused the leak. NASA reiterated that the primary radiator is functioning normally, the ISS crew is not in danger, and ground teams will continue to assess the issue. segment windows as a precaution against contamination,” according to the NASA update. “The flight control team informed the crew aboard the space station of the potential leak, and NASA astronaut Jasmin Moghbeli confirmed the presence of the flakes from the cupola windows, after which the crew was asked to close the shutters on U.S. In an update Monday afternoon, NASA said space agency officials in Houston “observed flakes emanating from one of two radiators” on the Nauka module at 1 p.m. “The crew and the station are not in danger.” “The main thermal control circuit of the module operates normally and provides comfortable conditions in the living area of the module,” according to a translated version of the message. The Nauka module was added to the space station in July 2021, but the leak occurred on an external, backup radiator that was delivered to the ISS on a space shuttle mission in 2010, according to NASA. Roscosmos said Monday in a notice posted to the messaging site Telegram that the coolant leak affected a radiator circuit on the Nauka module, which is located on the Russian-controlled segment of the ISS. The Russian space agency, Roscosmos, is searching for answers after one of its modules on the International Space Station sprang a coolant leak, adding to the list of mechanical issues the space agency has grappled with in low-Earth orbit over the past year.

Villanueva, speaking at the board meeting, said the reward had been matched and exceeded by private donors. The Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors formally ratified a $100,000 reward offer Tuesday. The sheriff's department initially offered a $100,000 reward in the investigation.

While I do have a carry case for my Stream Deck, it is bulky, and after reviewing the Quick Keys Remote, I figured it might just be something that would work as my portable solution. The reason it caught my attention was that I know at some point I will update to an Apple Silicon Mac and have to say goodbye to my touch bar. While I also utilise keyboard shortcuts, conflict palettes in Keyboard Maestro, and of course various Alfred keyword triggered workflows, having single touch buttons that carry out named functions as I switch between apps helps reduce that cognitive load of trying to keep track of all the possible keyboard shortcuts I might wish to employ. Currently I utilise an Elgato Stream Deck at my desk and my Macbook Pro’s touch bar when I’m on the go to trigger various automations I have put together. I was listening to a recent Automators podcast episode on hardware launchers when a device was mentioned that caught my interest. Xencelabs Quick Keys Remote and Mac Automation In this post I am going to outline how I do this to give you some ideas of how you might accomplish something similar with your own similar scenarios. Because my blog posts and assets utilise the publish date, this can lead to a bit of remedial work to line things up again prior to publishing.Īfter doing this manually a few times, I created an automation to allow me to quickly shift posts and assets to a new publish date. This frequently results in me starting writing up a post to be published on one day, but it getting delayed. I feel writing blog posts is useful as it allows me to share thoughts and solutions that others can then build on and utilise for their own needs, but I don’t have a way to set a structured regular time to do this, so it is an ad hoc activity. Things also come up and disrupt the flow, providing further challenges. I have always got several parallel activities on the go and writing everything down takes time and slow down progress. Writing blog posts is something that I generally struggle to make time to do.

I believe it would be outright mentally deranged to say that the world's enthusiasm for outer space at the tail-end of the '60s didn't help this film's reception at all, but I also think that Odyssey was such a success because for all it's hype and praise it's gotten over the years, it really IS as good as many people say. 2001 isn't as much of a film as it is a visual symphony which explores the ideas of the interstellar at a time when the world's interest in space was at an all-time high due to the all-mythical space race nearing it's last sprint. Strangelove but i'm talking on a reputation level).

You are constantly wondering about what's happening on the screen and your mind is constantly working at full speed.

Many of these make use of modern graphics cards from NVIDIA, including the latest GeForce with dedicated graphics memory (GDDR5). The Surface Studio 2 has the added benefit of touch and pen input. These include enough memory, processor speed, storage, and dedicated graphics. If portability is not critical, the new Mac Studio and Mac Pro are good choices for MacOS, as is the Microsoft Surface Studio 2 and Acer ConceptD. The HP ZBook Fury specifications for displays, along with choice of graphics cards, makes it an excellent choice for After Effects work. We do find screen size to be important, and suggest considering an external monitor display to use when working on page layouts or video editing projects.

You will want a computer with at least 16 GB of RAM memory, a dedicated video processor which is called a discrete GPU. You will need a higher-end laptop such as the MacBook Pro or Acer Nitro 5 which are well equipped in these key areas. If you are looking to use a laptop computer for After Effects, most low-cost notebooks or laptops simply are not sufficient.
