      Jump to conclusions?????   Plenty of time has passed since the "test" and 
this information should have already been available. Obviously George's 
statement about "Roscosmos forgets that they have PARTNERS in this venture" 
is correct.
I don't believe we are "jumping to conclusions" just because we expect 
somewhat timely answers.

Don't jump to any conclusions.  Wait for the AMSAT engineering people to
give you the current and CORRECT information.  If any info comes from 
anyone
else, it is not a direct contact with the Space Station people.
Be patient and remember, the engineering team has many questions waiting 
to
be answered also.

Good question...  after the "test" prior to "Yuri's Day" the battery was
apparently depleted.  Whether it has been recharged or replaced, who 
knows?
I'd still like to know whether NASA ever signed off on powering up the
satellite inside the space station...  seems like much of the time 
Roscosmos
forgets that they have PARTNERS in this venture.

I would like to be able to give a firm date for the ARISSat deployment,
but
there are a few issues that make that a moving target.
The deployment is scheduled to occur during Russian EVA 29, today that 
is
...
...
27
July 2011.
...
From a teleconference last week there was a notice that the EVA may be
pushed back a week or two if the Shuttle arrives in early July- nothing
firm
yet.
We have another teleconference 6 July. I will release any probable dates
or
updates when I know them.  Thank you for your patience.
