We can't figure out how to run some heat tape on the drain line? Apparently, they had this same issue on the Shuttles, too. It doesn't seem like rocket science.

I can't believe this thread is on page 2 and no one else has commented or shared the fact that this unique NASA crew is circling the "Dark Side of the Moon".

Pink Floyd
From the underground clubs of London to the outer edges of sound, their albums pushed boundaries, told stories, and captured the feeling of an era. What began as experimental psychedelia evolved into some of the most iconic, conceptual works in music history.

Heat tape at really high altitudes doesn't behave the same way as it does in your left-orbiting world at near zero ground level.

That picture is not from what the crew just saw.
Artemis II just completed its nearly hour-long eclipse experience and I listened to the transmissions of the crew for the duration of the event. Based on what they described, we do not have adequate words even in the English language to express what they saw. The brightness of the earthshine seemed to surprise the crew as they were in the moon's shadow. There was enough light from the earthshine that the crew could still see the surface of the moon. The starfield was also apparently very striking with multiple planets very visible. The sun's corona showed a lot of dynamic features that the crew explained in detail.
Artemis II is set for splashdown at 8:07 p.m. EDT tonight off the coast of San Diego.

Artemis II Flight Day 10: Crew Completes Final Burn Before Splashdown - NASA
At 2:53 p.m. EDT, the Orion spacecraft ignited its thrusters for 8 seconds, producing a change in velocity of 4.2 feet-per-second and pushing Artemis II toward Earth. NASA astronauts Reid Wiseman, Victor Glover, Christina Koch and CSA (Canadian Space Agency) astronaut Jeremy Hansen reviewed...

Quite possibly the best scene in the movie. "The man has got to go!"
Have had CNN on for the last two hours. Incredible coverage. Great analysts. Astronauts, physicists, professors, etc. Jeanette Epps, Mark Kelly, Pete Mutean, NASA administrators, etc. etc. calm ocean. Crew of the John P. Martha.
Already looking forward to the next space mission. Good Friday night entertainment.

Our country has done a lot of great things, but IMO, our space exploits beginning in the 1960s to the present are the greatest things that not only this country ever has done, but the greatest things that any country ever has done in the history of the world.
Tgar never pictured you as an MSNBC guy or whatever they are called these days. But since you areā¦.Bravo.

I know it's safety first, procedures, and all that. But geez, I'd want out of that capsule already.
And I'm watching the NASA channel on YouTube. I don't want to see any of the yahoos on the various cable news networks.

You can tell this landing and crew extraction was designed and executed by a bunch of Federal Government Employees.
No urgency or logic whatsoever.
