Mission Complete

Richard Weakley Photo Editor

“Mission complete, Houston.

After serving the world for over 30 years, the space shuttle has earned its place in history. It’s come to a final stop.”

Those were the words radioed to Mission Control in Houston

by STS-135 Commander Christopher Ferguson after landing and wheel stop of the Space Shuttle Atlantis on the Kennedy Space Center’s runway 15 at 5:57 a.m. EDT concluding the 12 day long International Space

Station (ISS) assembly flight.

Astronaut Barry “Butch” Wilmore acknowledged the completion of the mission from Mission Control in Houston.

“We copy your wheels stopped, and we’ll take this opportunity to congratulate you, Atlantis, as well as the thousands of passionate individuals across this great, space-faring nation who truly empower this incredible spacecraft, which for three decades has inspired millions around the globe.”

STS-135 was the 37th and final ISS assembly mission bringing the orbiting complex to one hundred percent com-

pletion of pressurized volume weighing in at 901,745 pounds.

The crew of Atlantis brought 30,576 pounds of hardware to the ISS. The nearly flawless execution of the STS-135 mission by the ‘Final Four’ space shuttle astronauts concluded the 30 year long space shuttle program. Since the first shuttle flight in the 1981, the five orbiters have a combined total of 542,398,878 miles in space over 135 missions carrying 355 individuals. Of the 133 landings, 78 landings have been at the Kennedy Space Center in Florida, 54 at Edwards Air

Force Base in California and one landing at White Sands Missile Range in New Mexico.

The space shuttle program has had a storied history of triumphs and successes. The space shuttle has exceeded its design expectations by surpassing the original mission of launching, repairing and recovering satellites by acting as an orbiting science laboratory with Spacelab, assembly platform for the ISS and delivery vehicle for supplies and crew members to the ISS and MIR space stations. Highlights also include Atlantis launching the Galileo spacecraft in 1989 to

study Jupiter and completing Hubble Servicing Mission 4 in 2009, the last mission to service and upgrade the Hubble Space Telescope.

The space shuttle program has also had its dark times through which the many dedicated men and women at NASA and its contractors have persevered through to continue to make the Space Shuttle a shining beacon of science, technology and space exploration.

The fourteen shuttle crewmembers that lost their lives in the Challenger and Columbia disasters will always be remembered for their bravery and con-

tributions to the space shuttle program.

Today, several space vehicles are being designed by Boeing, Lockheed Martin, Sierra Nevada and SpaceX to possibly fill the role of lofting astronauts into Earth orbit and beyond. No matter which design is chosen, the space shuttle will always have its place in history. In the words of Commander Ferguson, “The space shuttle has changed the way we view the world and it’s changed the way we view our universe. There are a lot of emotions today, but one thing is indisputable -- America’s not going to stop exploring.”

Staff Reporter During the summer, a lot of construction and upgrading projects are being made to better the living conditions of ERAU students on campus. This summer, the housing and residence life department has embarked on implementing some changes in the following halls: Doolittle, O’Connor, Chanute and McKay. Also some changes are being made around the student village circle.

O’Connor hall in the student village is being outfitted with stoves to enable students to prepare their own meals. Also, over the range

microwaves are being put in place as well in that hall. A new option for students who want to live in private rooms with full sized beds in the hall has also been approved.

The student village circle fire lane area has also been repainted and redesigned for safety. Einstein’s cafeteria in the village is also being refreshed with a larger menu as a result of feedback from the students. Floor replacements have also been done in Stimpson hall.

Kristen Getka, Associate Director of Housing and Residence life said that most of the planned changes depend on the financing received from the university.

A 1.7 million dollar window replacement project is

now taking place in the student village. The windows now are impact resistant; this allows lighting and also makes the room cooler Changes in the Doolittle hall started last year with the repainting of the walls and the replacement of the floors. The changes being made inside Doolittle is as a result of the last year contract of .5 million dollar being finalized. According to Tom Hilgers, the Director of housing and Residence life, in 2005, upgrades where done in McKay hall. The floors, toilets and bathrooms were replaced, new railings were also put in place, and the window units were also changed. Refrigerators were also replaced from the small

Three Embry-Riddle teams sweep FAA challenge Press Release

ERAU Communications In an unprecedented achievement, three student teams from Embry-Riddle’s Daytona Beach campus recently took first, second, and third place in the Runway Safety/Runway Incursions Challenge category of the 2010-2011 Design Competition for Universities sponsored by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA).

The annual event, now in its fifth year, engages undergraduate and graduate students at U.S. colleges in designing innovative solutions for technical challenges in airport infrastructure and operations.

The competition requires students to reach out to airport operators and industry experts to advise them and help them assess the efficacy of their proposed solutions.

Representatives of the FAA, industry, and academia select the winning proposals, and teams with promising designs may receive FAA funding to take their concepts to the next stage of development.

Embry-Riddle’s first-place team submitted a design titled Tactile Stimulation System that

proposes the development and installation of aviation-grade rumble strips on taxiways near runway intersections to alert pilots that they are about to enter a potentially dangerous area. The student team members were Katherine Kaste, Heidi Klein, Marshall Lloyd, Kristi Lontz, Scott Matzke, Aaron Paul, and Wilfredo Rodriguez-Jimenez.

The notification letter sent to Embry-Riddle stated, “The panel was impressed with the students’ proficiency in the development of a simple design to help increase situational awareness and felt they provided an impressive package in support of their concept.”

The second-place team’s design, titled Runway Incursion Prevention Lighting System (RIPLS), uses an in-pavement lighting system at hold-short lines supported by a user-centered interface for air traffic managers, to provide for safe entry for aircraft and ground vehicles across active runways.

The student team members were Erik Schmidt, Casey Smith, Nicholas Stapleton, Tammy Strauss, Glenn Surpris, Anna Vitalis, Travis Wiltshire, David Yacht, and Zhengzhong Yu. The third-place team’s

design, titled EyePort, offers controllers, pilots, and airport personnel anytime, anywhere access to the existing technologies and information sources that support air operations.

The student team members were Daniel Antolos, William Dructor, Augusto Espinosa, Jolie Gascon, Abigail Gaston, Jerry Gordon, Joshua Hagar, and Maggie Hart.

All three Embry-Riddle teams developed their design projects as part of a graduate human factors course taught

by Dr. Kelly Neville, associate professor of human factors and systems. Dr. Neville and Marty Lauth, assistant professor of air traffic management, served as advisors to the teams.

The teams had to learn about airport operations in order to identify a specific challenge to address, draw on engineering principles and tools to develop a feasible solution, and work as a team to produce a technical proposal describing their solution and the work behind it.

In order to win the FAA Design Competition, teams are required to reach out to and learn from industry experts. The operations staff at the Daytona Beach International Airport, led by John Murray, shared

their time and expertise with all three Embry-Riddle teams.

The teams’ interactions with these airport operations personnel gave them a strong advantage over competing teams and also helped them come up with feasible and useful designs.

“I felt each group did an outstanding job, and it appears the FAA agreed with me,” said Lauth. “Once again this reaffirms the caliber of our students and the motivation they display for future aviation endeavors.”

The first-place Embry-Riddle team received a $2,500 prize from the FAA and presented their design at the Summer Workshop Series held by the FAA, the Transportation Security Administration, and the Airport Consultants Council from July 13-14, 2011, in Arlington, Va. The award plaque for the university was also presented at that time.

The partnering organizations this year were the Airport Consultants Council, the Airports Council International – North America, the American Association of Airport Executives, the National Association of State Aviation Officials, and the University Aviation Association.

The partners helped to

The Design Competition for Universities is administered by the FAA Office of

Runway Safety and is managed by the Virginia Space Grant Consortium for the FAA. The prize-winning proposals can be viewed at the competition website, http://FAADesignCompeti tion.odu.edu.

The saga’s epic finale Totally plotless action

Harry Potter 7 - Part 2

Tilford Mansfield Comics Editor

If you plan to see it, I suggest maintaining low standards for the final film of the Harry Potter series. Harry Potter 7 Part II grossed over 40 million USD its first night and I can only hope whoever watched it then was satisfied that the film series finally concluded, because that

is about the only thing I left the theater content with on opening day.

What you will find in the film includes ghosts, cyclops, stone guardians, wisps of smoke, volleys of energy bolts (maybe they were magic missiles!), and fire being whipped around constantly, but what you will not find says that much more.

Anybody who has read the books could tell you that the movie leaves much to be desired regarding the plot and background content to the story being told.

The worst part of the whole movie is the lack of creative spells or enchantments for viewing pleasure. I counted four or five spells by name, but visually I saw only energy flying around and sometimes lashes of fire, which I could honestly get with a Tesla coil and flamethrower, so where was the magic in this last film?

I mean there are wizards waging a war and the best David Yates (Director) can muster with the huge budget is a giant magical shield?

The final showdown between

Harry and Lord Voldemort was pretty much the same scene from their showdown in the graveyard in the fourth movie minus the ghosts of either wands’ past kills, and believe me when I say that is not a spoiler because if you’re watching the second installment of the seventh film, you have probably seen the fourth.

The epilogue from the book is shown, and I say this only so that you are prepared to see children pretending to be 40 years of age with children of their own. You can not give a kid a belly and make it look like he is balding and expect that he will appear older; he will just look like a kid with some medical issues.

I hope the next generation of theatrical entertainment, as in holographic 3-D films, virtual reality, or what have you, has the tenacity to remake this film series in a better way.

I do not recommend this film for anything but closure, and this is the grieving closure like following a breakup; there were good times, but the breakup was still sad. I give this film one airplane out of five.

WHILE THE FIRST TWO Transformers movies were good, this last movie in the series throws plot entirely out the window, not unlike how main character Sam got thrown out the building in the picture, however, you can be certain the plot died in that fall.

SOME WILL LOVE IT, some will hate it, but everyone will still head to the cinemas to witness the completion of a saga. While the plot is already known to most people, the special effects do not do justice to the expectations created by the earlier movies.

Everybody knows Transformers, it is the beloved cartoon franchise we all watched as kids about alien robots who can transform into cars. In his latest attempt to recreate a supernova, Michael Bay decided that after having two successful Transformers films he needed to massacre the last film and ruin the franchise forever.

The movie begins with over half an hour of watching Sam (Shia LaBeouf) applying

for jobs and interviewing in what can only be described as everything you should not do when interviewing for a job.

While trying to stay awake through LaBeouf’s portrayal of an A.D.D. addled character doing a menial job, the audience is bombarded by Michael Bay’s overt message that Carly (Rosie Huntington-Whitley) is just as good as Mikaela (Megan Fox) from the first two movies.

There are several scenes where characters compare Carly to Mikaela; however, her acting prowess is even less than that of Megan Fox. Finally after what seems like two hours you get to see some new Transformers, but you are instantly let down when you realize that these look nothing like actual Transformers and will not be seen for the rest of the movie.

The action begins to pick up after the main villain is revealed and it seems like the good guys have abandoned us to the wolves.

We see the Decepticons laying waste to Chicago because we are no match for their armored blimp Transformers; until finally the Autobots, the “good guys”, show up because they felt it was necessary for the Decepticons to devastate an entire city before they would step in and help.

The action then turns back to Sam as we follow him through another of his banal quests, this time to get his girlfriend back from the Decepticons; because in an alien invasion you always storm the alien fortress for some girl who is not Megan Fox. After finally getting his girlfriend back we get to see Shia LaBeouf and some minor characters play slip and slide with an office floor and the side of a building.

The final turning point of the movie comes as Carly manages to convince Megatron, who had apparently rusted away due to the lack of Megan Fox in this movie, to commit suicide by attacking the single Transformer who was letting him live.

The special effects in the movie are good but only because it follows the basic Michael Bay recipe of bigger explosions and a plot that makes less sense; there are several movies still playing in theatres with sound plot lines and good special effects (Green Lantern) to prove you can have plot and action.

This movie’s ridiculous plot line, implausible scenes, and many plot holes, the biggest being a complete disregard of tidal forces, has earned it 2 airplanes out of 5 and two thumbs way down.
