'''Pluto 1995''' was the fourth Ottawa [[mission]].

==Memorable Events==
During Pluto 1995, the infamous [[Pink Water]] incident happened. There was also a water flood early in the mission due to a cardboard washer. Anatole Papadopoulos had a mishap with [[Liquid nitrogen]]; depending on the source, he either dropped the container on his foot or burned it. He was sent back to Earth using the gravity well from a faster-than light [[communication system]] and after his injury was pronounced safe he returned to the [[Hawking I]].

Mr. Jeffcott. Thank you for your recent editing, it is impressive! The Wiki Team is pleased. I just wanted to ask that you shift your efforts slightly. Watching your edits (Matt Dunbar, Matt Dunbar, pizza run, pizza run, Matt Dunbar, Matt Dunbar), I thought I'd express what we really need to tell more people: that the absolute most important pages on the wiki are about procedures, the rooms in the habitat, facts about missions and education, procedures, history, etc. The Wiki is our own lore collection, but it's also a big part of our public outreach. It's not uncommon that people who know nothing about Spacesim, or who haven't known anything about Spacesim for 20 years, will visit the wiki to see who we are.
Obviously we like all kinds of editing, and the lore stuff is an important aspect of Spacesim and is a lot of what future members will want to know. I also want to make it very clear that I'm not telling you off or necessarily even correcting you, I just wanted to make sure that as a member of the Wiki Task Force you had been informed of our mission and our priorities. - [[User:Darth Wombat|Darth Wombat]] 23:24, 12 March 2010 (EST)

:.......Wall. Of. Text. You should come on the wiki more often man. Gee. Well... so should I. But that ain't the point! [[User:Cslatlantis|---Wernstrum, Stargakat, Jonas]] 13:12, 29 October 2010 (EDT)

Red Tape

2010-10-29T20:30:16Z

Exonar: Updating with most recent run in with the red tape of DAETH

{{Lore}}

'''Red Tape''', otherwise known as bureaucracy, is something frequently encountered by all those who deal with large organizations such as the [[OCDSB]]. [[Spacesim]]'s encounters with Red Tape have included the many visits of the [[Fire Marshals]] and the shuffling of the club back and forth between the [[Media Centre]] and [[440 Albert Street]].

==Red Tape in [[2007-08]]==
During the 2007-08 scholastic year, Spacesim was notified that they would be moved to another room of [[Ottawa Tech]] to make room for a growing masons' school. Spacesim was later told that they would not have to move, but even later they were told that they would have to again. Coincidentally, or related to a worldwide Illuminati conspiracy, some type of inspector announced that the [[Habitat]] was unsafe.

==Red Tape in [[2010-11]]==
At the end of the previous year ([[2009-10]]), Spacesim was subjected to an inspection from Occupational Health and Safety, resulting in the temporary closing of the 440 facilities. This closing continued into the start of the 2010-11 year, resulting in a severe lack of worksessions at the start of the year. Instead, [[EEPs]] and [[Orbit]] training sessions were held at [[Lisgar]].

Talk:Samuel's Proposal for Training Missions

2010-07-24T06:43:31Z

Exonar:

==Holding back information==
Mission Control may have legitimate reasons for holding back information. For instance, if it is impossible for the Habitat to fix an issue before moving on to the next most important task, Mission Control may hold back potential solutions, while ordering the astronauts to the next task. It is Mission Control's duty to make sure that the astroanuts accomplish their goals, and it is the Mission Control Commander's or any Flight Director's perogative to decide which information the Habitat needs in order to best fulfill their duties. Of course, as a perennial astronaut, I am for full disclosure. However, the Mission Control Commander's authority is absolute. He is in charge of the mission. Period. [[User:Stefanido|-- Stefanido]] 21:56, 29 March 2010 (EDT)
:Absolutely. I was more aiming to convey that I have seen, both in a training mission and in a main mission, Simulators not give information to Mission Control on the grounds that the astronauts had not yet directly asked for a solution to the disaster at hand. - [[User:Darth Wombat|Darth Wombat]] 22:15, 29 March 2010 (EDT)

==Punishment==
Perhaps not punishment, but simulator reaction to astronaut action is the duty of the simulator. For instance, during [[Daedalus 2010]], Jeffcott and I were watching the Simulator Mezzanine. There had been a short on the secondary power bus, and the astronauts were flicking the lights on and off. Jeffcott and I, as simulators, determined that this flickering would exacerbate the short, and proceeded to cause ln1 to malfunction and disabled the C&C lights. This sort of reaction and quick thinking is ''absolutely'' the job of the simulator, and is not so much punishment of the astronauts as it is an attempt to simulate how the real world might interact with the astronauts. [[User:Stefanido|-- Stefanido]] 21:56, 29 March 2010 (EDT)
:If it is a reaction that follows logically from the astronauts' behaviour, that is absolutely appropriate. If it is in the mindset that the astronauts deserve to have unrelated bad things happen to them because they have behaved in an "inapproriate" fashion, I see no constructive purpose. - [[User:Darth Wombat|Darth Wombat]] 22:15, 29 March 2010 (EDT)

==Goals==
In my opinion, your proposals miss the main issue with training missions as they currently stand. The number one problem with training missions as they are executed today is that there are no clear-cut goals for the astronauts to pursue and for Mission Control to direct them towards. I feel that if a training mission had one or two well defined goals and several clear-cut end conditions, training missions would proceed with much more expediency and interest. "This is what we have to do. Now let's figure out how to do it." [[User:Stefanido|-- Stefanido]] 21:56, 29 March 2010 (EDT)
:I agree that we need that. That, however, is not all that we need. Would you like to add it as an amendment? - [[User:Darth Wombat|Darth Wombat]] 22:15, 29 March 2010 (EDT)

==Comments==
This, This is beautiful. This made me cry when I read it. I completely agree with everything outlined in this proposal. [[User:IronyFail|IronyFail in ANAGLYPH 3D!]] 20:59, 27 May 2010 (EDT)

Mr. Samuel Baltz, I am requesting that you stop reading my mind. Either that or everyone reacts the same way when inexperienced simulators happen. [[User:IronyFail|IronyFail in ANAGLYPH 3D!]] 23:49, 17 July 2010 (EDT)

:I believe the latter is rather likely. - [[User:Exonar|Exonar]] 02:43, 24 July 2010 (EDT)

I've missed tons of Mission-Specific ranks. If you can think of any, please help out. Thanks - [[User:Darth Wombat|Darth Wombat]] 21:01, 9 February 2010 (EST)
:Ill try. Also I don't believe CAPCOM is a position in the hierarchy as it is usually done by all people in MC and not a designated person. [[User:IronyFail|IronyFail in ANAGLYPH 3D!]] 21:10, 9 February 2010 (EST)
::Really? During training missions there was always a designated CAPCOM, and CAPCOM is supposed to be the second in command - [[User:Darth Wombat|Darth Wombat]] 22:16, 9 February 2010 (EST)
::that is to say, in the MC hierarchy. I guess we had a Mission Specialist doubling as CAPCOM. - [[User:Darth Wombat|Darth Wombat]] 22:17, 9 February 2010 (EST)
:::Last year everyone took turns on CAPCOM, so Im not that sure. Also having CAPCOM as any advanced position doesn't make sense as they just pass messages through and don't have to think. [[User:IronyFail|IronyFail in ANAGLYPH 3D!]] 14:40, 10 February 2010 (EST)
::::That's quite a misconception, as CAPCOM really does have to think. They have to take what the Flight Director says, read what the Flight Director actually means, paraphrase that into something appropriate for the radio, and transmit it. They need to take word-perfect dictation coming from the HAB, as one word could mean the difference between life and death for the astronauts. Finally, CAPCOM has to be aware of the mood on both ends of the communications, and endeavour to keep the lines of communication well oiled and always open. CAPCOM is not an easy job. It doesn't have a position in the hierarchy, though. Technically, the only MC position with any real rank to it is the Flight Director. Everyone defers to the Flight Director (except for the Admiral). [[User:Stefanido|Stefanido]] 15:40, 10 February 2010 (EST)
:::::Thanks for the input and clarification. I think I might add some of what you said to the [[CAPCOM]] page. [[User:IronyFail|IronyFail in ANAGLYPH 3D!]] 19:16, 10 February 2010 (EST)
::::::Stefan: what about MC Mission Commander? - [[User:Darth Wombat|Darth Wombat]] 19:43, 10 February 2010 (EST)
:::::::As I think I said on the MC Mission Commander talk page, in the past, there were two Mission Commanders and no Subcommander. One Mission Commander would take MC and the other, the Hab (not always). I suppose that you could call MC Commander and Hab Commander Mission-Specific ranks, whereas Mission Commander is a non-Mission-Specific rank.

Mission-Specific Hierarchy

Exonar: Mission-Specific moved to Mission-Specific Hierarchy

{{wip}}
The term '''Mission-Specific''' refers to ranks within the administrative hierarchy of Spacesim that only take effect during the main [[mission]]. It is worth noting that mission-specific ranks are different from mission roles; the former describes positions of power within the mission, frequently held by members who have no actual power at other times, while the latter can describe any position during the mission. A good example of the former would be [[Flight Director]], while a good example of the latter would be [[Simulator]].

Another term for Mission-Specific is Mission Mobilization. This is primarily used in old documents.

==Mission-Specific Ranks==
These are primarily found within [[Mission Control]], with a few notable exceptions:
*[[Mission Control Commander]]
*[[Flight Director]]
*[[Simulator Commander]]
*[[Mission Specialist]]

==Stations==
Mission Control staff cycle between various stations that hold no special rank themselves.
*[[CAPCOM]]
*[[EECOM]]
*[[BIOCOM]]
*[[GUIDO]]
*[[FIDO]]
*[[Engineering]]

==[[Habitat]] Ranks==
*[[Mission Specialist]]
*[[Pilot]]
*[[Medic]]
*[[Chief Engineer]]

|United forever in friendship and labour,

Our mighty endeavour will ever endure.

The great Spacesim legend will live through the ages.

The dream of a people, their EEPs days secure.

Long live our Spacesim Hab expand,

Made by the people's mighty hand.

Long live our members, united in glee.

Strong in our friendship tried by ire.

Long may our mission launch inspire,

Shining in glory for all things to see.

Through days dark and stormy where the cohort had brought us

Our eyes saw the bright sun of doctrine above

And Magwood our teacher, with faith in the members,

Inspired us to build up the room that we love.

Long live our Spacesim Hab expand,

Made by the people's mighty hand.

Long live our members, united in glee.

Strong in our friendship tried by ire.

Long may our mission launch inspire,

Shining in glory for all things to see.

We built for the future, fixed up the new wiki,

And brought to our Spacesim the gift of the game.

Our glory will live in the good education

Of all generations, regardless of fame.

Long live our Spacesim Hab expand,

Made by the people's mighty hand.

Long live our members, united in glee.

Strong in our friendship tried by ire.

Long may our mission launch inspire,

Shining in glory for all things to see.

!Parody of ''The Battle Hymn of the Old Republic''
|-
|By [[Nick Eglin|Eglin]]
|-
|[Based on [[The Space Sim Song]]]

We are, we are, we are, we are, we are the astronauts.

We fly, we fly, we fly, we fly, we fly around a lot.

We are, we are, we are, we are, we are the very best.

We're the O.C.E.S.S.

Glory, glory and it's off to space we go.

Glory, glory as we shout out "Spaceward Ho!"

We are, we are, we are, we are the very best.

We're the O.C.E.S.S.

The astronauts all flew out quite ignorant of their fate.

First they had a water leak, which the simmies used as bait.

Oh, they stemmed the flow though did not know the duct tape was all gone

The mission carries on.

Glory, glory and it's off to space we go.

Glory, glory as we shout out "Spaceward Ho!"

We are, we are, we are, we are the very best.

We're the O.C.E.S.S.

Bravely they all flew out but then one of them got sick

MC said it was harmless, but to them it seemed a trick.

Quarantined and through a screen he'd see them all anon.

The mission carries on.

Glory, glory and it's off to space we go.

Glory, glory as we shout out "Spaceward Ho!"

We are, we are, we are, we are the very best.

We're the O.C.E.S.S.

He persevered, when orbit neared, they dropped him back on Earth

They met up with some Ruskies, then with AYSE in her berth.

The simmies had one trick left, they had a faithful pawn.

The mission carries on.

Glory, glory and it's off to space we go.

Glory, glory as we shout out "Spaceward Ho!"

We are, we are, we are, we are the very best.

We're the O.C.E.S.S.

They flew out to the asteroid belt to make an FTL.

Pulled a Star Trek on the physics, but the simmies still were hell

Meteor shower met AYSE power but it could not defend

The mission sadly ends.

Glory, glory and it's off to space we go.

Glory, glory as we shout out "Spaceward Ho!"

We are, we are, we are, we are the very best.

We're the O.C.E.S.S.

Simulator Loft

2010-06-14T00:01:53Z

Exonar: Silly Samuel, making an infinite loop. Fixed

[[Image:SimmieLoft.png|right|frame|The Simulator Loft.]]
The term "Simulator Loft" describes an area in the current room W027. For the area in the old room E016, see [[Simulator Area]].

The '''Simulator Loft''' is where the [[Simulators]] keep their computers and tools, and where they congregate to cause disasters. It is the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mezzanine_%28architecture%29 mezzanine] area of the current [[440 Albert Street]] facilities.

==Contents==
The Simulator Loft houses the following objects:
*The patch panel and network hub that services the [[Spacesim network|network]] at [[440 Albert]], along with a number of network cables
*A large bookcase housing not only books about science but ancient Spacesim records
*A pile of mats and one bunk formerly from the [[Hawking II]] for simulators to sleep on during the [[Mission]], when they are allowed to.
*A printer for FU and associated manuals and drivers
*The computers FU, A.C. Clarke, Nebula, Temeraire, and Cassini, found on the [[List of Computers]]
*A series of light switches that control the power to the individual rooms of the [[habitat]]. It is important to note that the computers, the fridge and the microwave run on a seperate circuit (an emergency backup generator in the [[Beta]] reality), and although the light switches can cut power to lights and outlets in the habitat they cannot affect these crucial systems. One switch each controls the lights and plugs in the [[Interlock]], the [[Longhouse]], and [[Command and Control]], and a fourth switch controls the [[Hotlab]], [[Engineering Closet]], [[Airlock]], and the outlets in the [[Bathroom]]. There is no way to turn off the lights in the washroom. A fifth switch turns all the other switches on.
*A television that can switch between any feed from any camera inside the habitat
*4 chairs
*Stereo equipment that runs the sound system within the habitat
*3 unused computer monitors

SubSim

2010-06-11T16:35:47Z

Exonar: Grammar corrections. Damnit Arrian >:(

{{Pic}}
The '''SubSim''' software is the Quick Basic program that controls the subermisble craft [[Laura]]. It was introduced to the club in [[2009-10]] for [[Mission Daedalus]] by [[Dr. James Magwood]], who adapted it from a submarine warfare program that he had written while a PhD student. Consequentially, this software still includes unidentified objects, which in the original program were enemy Russian submarines. The software is perhaps most notable for its optional 3D graphical display of the ocean floor; creating a 3D graphical display in Quick Basic was the act that finally convinced most members that Dr. Magwood is, in fact, God.

==Functions==
The SubSim Software's engine functions are much the same as in the [[Orbit]] software. Laura has a left engine and a right engine, each of which can be run at up to 100% capacity and in the opposite direction at 100% capacity (signified in the program with -100%), as well as a centre engine which is also reversible. It has bow and stern planes which can be adjusted to allow the water to flow either under or over the submarine and push it up or down, respectively, and these can be raised or lowered in increments of degrees up to 90 and down to -90. Similarly, its rudder has the same funcionality; this is one example of the smooth fashion in which the program deals with transportation in three dimensions. The software accounts for ballast, which can be ejected from either side or drawn into either side to function as an air bladder. The program also allows Laura, through the use of a fathmometer, to chart what she meets in her travels through alien oceans and to determine the distance, using sonar, between herself and any other objects in the water. The sonar also allows Laura to track consistent sources of sound: possible signs of alien habitation, and the sonar accounts for thermal layers. The program allows Laura to take up to six samples of water, and it also tracks collisions such that if she collides with objects she will spring dangerous leaks. Images on the display allow the user to track information in three dimensions, with animations showing an image of the submarine's pitch and a compass showing its yaw. Given its 360 degree functionality, the submarine's roll is unimportant.

==Use to Date==
The software was used once on Mission Daedalus, but only briefly; the mission's late launch date coupled with the desire for more [[EVAs]] led the software to be brushed aside. Since then members have attempted to use it on one [[training mission]], but that mission was cut short and the submarine could not be deployed. The software is used so infrequently because of the limited number of places in the solar system where it is useful; recent examples of locations where [[astronauts]] can go on EVAs and can deploy a submarine are [[Earth]], [[Europa]], and [[Enceldus]]. There have been discussions about deploying the submarine in oceans of methane, but the [[pseudoscience]] would have to be worked out and the astronauts would have to have some reason to go on EVA.

[[Image:Planetarium.JPG|right|thumb|400px|[[Brian Foo]] aids in the inflation of the Planetarium at the [[440 Albert]] Cafeteria during the preparation for a training session for new presenters in [[2006-07|April 2007]].]]

'''Planetariums''', along with [[EEP]]s, make up the educational arm of Spacesim. The goal of Planetariums, like [[EEP]]s, is to educate students about space and spread interest in space sciences and space exploration. They also generate revenue for the club so that it may continue to offer such programs.

==Program==

Unlike EEPs, Planetariums only offer one topic and are mainly geared towards astronomy. Where EEPs attempt to educate students in general science, planetariums generate interest in astronomy and outer space.

This program involves students of Spacesim taking an inflatable planetarium to various schools in the region and set up on their premises. There, we take the students inside the inflatable dome and show them around the night sky, showing them the constellations, their history and the story behind each of them, as well as explaining such phenomena as red/blue shift, and why some stars appear brighter than others in the night sky, among other things.

==Leadership==

This program is lead by the [[Planetarium Commander]]. The [[current]] Planetarium Commander is [[Bryce Storey]]. You can contact him [[contact|here]] to schedule a Planetarium session.

After the [[2010-11]] administration changes, the program will be lead by the [[Education Commander]] and the [[Deputy Education Commander]].

Fuel

2010-06-09T00:21:50Z

Exonar:

'''Fuel''' is a necessary part of the [[Habitat]] and [[Ayse]] systems. Although it is not a system itself, it is critical part as it keeps all other systems running.

The fuel that is in the fuel tanks is typically liquid hydrogen, if you are filling your tank from [[Earth]] or Ayse, which is then fused toghether by the [[reactor]] to make helium and energy. if you are filling your tanks from another planet such as Jupiter, you will get Hydrogen, Helium and other gases. This means that though it can still be used by the reactor, it will output less energy per Kg, which in turn means less efficiency.

Fuel is monitored from the Engineering station in all three locations (The [[Habitat]], [[Mission Control]], and the [[Simulator Area]]).

'''Duct Tape''' is a lustrous grey material with an adhesive-coated underside. Contrary to its name (or at least the sound of it), duct tape is not made from actual ducks. Duct Tape is also similar to [[Aluminium Tape]] and they both get applied for similar uses.

Planetary Surface Crew

2010-06-08T02:08:16Z

Exonar: Making Personnel section not useless

The '''planetary surface crew''' is a [[Task Forces|Task Force]] that is assigned to decorate the [[planetary surface]] to simulate the environment being visited by the astronauts. They usually operate behind closed doors to maintain [[mission integrity]] and prevent [[Astronauts]] or [[Mission Control]] staff from viewing the alien environment. The planetary surface crew usually works in close co-ordination with the [[Simulators]] so as to co-ordinate the landscape and environment with their planned disasters. Since the planetary surface crew members have already seen the alien environment before the mission, they usually serve as simulators to maintain mission integrity by preventing Mission Control from accidentally discovering what the landscape looks like.

==Methods==

The planetary surface crew often use papier-mâché to create landscape and natural objects such as rocks and puddles. Sand is almost always used to cover the floor of the planetary surface, while colored sheets are hung above the surface to simulate the sky of a planet.

However, the planetary surface crew have used some very creative methods of simulating an alien environment within the confines of 440 Albert Street. Such methods include using [[popcorn]] to simulate snow, and using large fans and subwoofers to simulate wind and earthquakes.

==Personnel==

The 2010-2011 task force crew is not yet decided.

The 2009-2010 task force consisted of [[Amalissa Hum]] [[Task Force Leader|(Leader)]], [[Olivia Frank]], [[Zola Magwood]], [[Jane MacLeod]], [[Elizabeth Robson Gordon]], [[Bryn Beynon]], [[Max Jeffcott]], and [[Ben Paul]]

Training Requirements (procedures)

2010-06-08T01:53:00Z

Exonar: Minor Formating

{{Procedure}}
==Station Training==
Station Training refers to the basic training that members must receive on specific mission tasks in order to be qualified to perform their duties during a mission.

==Stations==
There are nine stations that a member can train in. These are:

*Common
** AUXCOM
** CAPCOM
** EECOM
** ENG
** LOGS
** NETWORK
*Specific
** COMMAND
** MEDICAL
** PILOT

===Common Stations===
Each of the stations listed under "common" also refers to a station in [[Procedures Table of Contents#Common Positions|the common positions chapter]] of the Procedures Manual. These stations have minor differences in the requirements for each of [[Astronauts]], [[Mission Control]], and [[Simulators]], and so certification in a common station will be considered certification in that station under each of the three groups.

===Specific Stations===
Each of the stations listed under the "specific" heading have different requirements for each of the three groups, and members must certify for that station under each group separately.

In Mission Control:
*COMMAND is required by:
**{{procsref|FLIGHT|Training Requirements|FLIGHT and the Mission Control Commander}}
*MEDICAL is required by:
**{{procsref|SURGEON|Training Requirements|SURGEON}}
*PILOT is required by:
**{{procsref|FIDO|Training Requirements|FIDO}} and {{procsref|GNC|Training Requirements|GNC}}

In the Habitat:
*COMMAND is required by:
**{{procsref|Habitat Commander|Training Requirements|The Habitat Commander}} and {{procsref|Subcommander|Training Requirements|the Subcommander}}
*MEDICAL is required by:
**{{procsref|MEDIC|Training Requirements|The Medic}}
*PILOT is required by:
**{{procsref|PILOT|Training Requirements|The Pilot}} and {{procsref|Co-Pilot|Training Requirements|the co-pilot}}

==Ratings==
Each member will have a rating on each station, which indicates their relative level of training and competence on that station. The ratings are:
{| border="1"
|-
|width="100px" align=center style="background: #990011;"|Not Complete ||width=500px| This member has not accomplished any significant strides in mastering this station.
|-
|align=center style="background: #CC6622;"|In Progress || This member understands the basics of this station. They are working towards a rating of Complete on this station.
|-
|align=center style="background: #00EE33;"|Complete || This member has mastered this station. They are qualified to man it during a Main Mission.
|-
|align=center style="background:#FFDD44;"|Instructor || This member has demonstrated expertise surpassing mastery on this station. They are qualified to instruct others in its function, and certify them to the rating of "Complete."
|-
|}

==Documentation==
Each member will have their own training summary card, housed on the wiki. It will display their certifications on their member page.

Members are required to display this documentation to the Mission Control Commander when applying for astronaut or mission control duties.

===Example Summary Card===
{|align=left
|{{Training
|auxmc=c
|auxhab=i
|auxsim=n

|capmc=c
|caphab=i
|capsim=n

|commc=c
|comhab=i
|comsim=n

|eemc=c
|eehab=c
|eesim=n

|engmc=instructor
|enghab=c

|logsim=n

|medmc=n
|medhab=n
|medsim=n

|net=instructor

|pltmc=c
|plthab=i
|pltsim=n
}}
|}
 

==Certification Requirements==
In order to be certified to a particular rating, members must be able to demonstrate all of the abilities itemized in the appropriate [[Station Training Protocols#0.5.8 List of Certification Requirements|list of certification requirements]]. These requirements stack, so that members trying for their Complete Rating, must also be able to demonstrate the In Progress Rating skills.

Members are certified to In Progress Rating or Complete Rating by their instructor. The instructor is then responsible for having their student's documentation updated on the wiki. Instructors are required to document all students they have certified.

Members are certified to the Instructor Rating by the Mission Commander, if the Mission Commander has rating of Complete or higher on that station. Otherwise, the Admiral may certify members to the Instructor Rating.

===Changes to Certification Requirements===
Changes to the certification requirements are made as a petition to the Mission Commander.

If the Mission Commander changes the certification requirements, the previous requirements should be preserved, and an amendment appended to the appropriate section. The Mission Commander must then re-certify all Instructors for that station within two weeks of the changes. The Instructors must re-certify all of their students who are still current members within two weeks of being re-certified themselves.

If a member is not re-certified, their rating will be downgraded to In Progress, with a note made of their previous rating.

==Instructors==
===Assignment===
Members are generally responsible for locating their own instructor for each station. However, they can also ask the Mission Commander to petition instructors on their behalf.

===Number===
There is no maximum number of instructors for any particular station.

The Mission Commander is responsible for ensuring that there is at least one instructor for each station each year. If, at the end of the year, graduation or other factors would cause there to be fewer than one instructor for each station, the Mission Commander must return in the following year to certify sufficient instructors. If the Mission Commander is unable to fulfill this obligation, the Admiral must promote a member to Instructor Rating.

'''Duct Tape''' is a lustrous grey material with an adhesive-coated underside. Contrary to its name (or at least the sound of it), duct tape is not made from actual ducks. Duct Tape is also similar to [[Aluminium Tape]] and they both get applied for similar uses.

Exonar:

The Public Relations Director, a currently nonexistant position, has always been in charge of all activities geared towards publicizing Spacesim. This may include searching for [[sponsors]], scripting assemblies, or even organizing press conferences. The post was revived in [[2005-06]] by [[Stefan De Young]], but was discontinued in [[2007-08]] as the commanders shared the publicity work amongst themselves.

==External Affairs Subcommander==

[[Administration#Format to Take Effect in 2010-11|The 2010-2011 Hierarchy overhaul]] includes the position of External Affairs Subcommander, a modern revivial of the PR Director, and one which will have much the same duties.

EVA Suit

Exonar: Moar Grammar/Spelling

[[Image:Oldsuit Newhelmet.JPG|right|thumb|200px|[[Ken Lindsay]] demonstrates the old suit and new helmet in [[2006-07]]]]
[[Image:Corset.JPG|left|thumb|200px|[[Stefan De Young]] demonstrates the space activity suit's "corset" in [[2006-07]].]]'''EVA suits''' are items of clothing worn by [[astronauts]] in hazardous environments, most notably the hard vacuum of outer space. There are many different varieties of EVA suits, and [[Spacesim]] possesses two different types of suit: full-body suits (similar to the [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Advanced_Crew_Escape_Suit Advanced Crew Escape Suit]) and skin-tight [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Space_activity_suit space activity suits].

==Full-body suits==
[[Spacesim]] originally conducted [[missions]] with only three of these suits, leaving those [[astronauts]] without suits to cower in safe modules during emergencies. These suits have several layers of fabric, which insulate and protect the [[astronaut]], and Velcro cuffs that help keep air in. Each suit is associated with a plastic bubble helmet. These suits, in particular one made with several layers of plastic, are known to get very hot very fast when an astronaut is wearing it. As a result, the plastic suit have been affectionally named the "hot suit" during mission Red Dawn; recent efforts to reform the EVA suit system are also a response to this problem.

==Space Activity Suits==
In response to criticisms that the older suits were too restrictive, hot, and generally showing their age, Commander De Young pushed for, and got to develop a new generation replacement, termed Space Activity Suits. These suits consist of a central 'corset' and elasticized fabric for the limbs, simulated by tights or long underwear. These apply mechanical pressure to the skin to prevent bruising in a vacuum. They are designed to be worn under a [[flight suit]]. These were intended as full replacements of the EVA suits, however, during their first mission in use, the corsets partially detarorated due to hasty construction leading up to the mission, and the less than gentle environment on board the Habitat. The tights segment of the activity suits were never enforced beyond the first EVA, due to the discomfert and "un-manly-ness" associated with wearing a tight/underwear.
Also, due to the easy and unencombered nature of the "corset", astronauts, like pilot Scothorn and co-pilot Xing, were able to wear the activity suit full time while having helmets and gloves placed on top of the computer at which they were working, thus mentally eliminating the danger of beta death.
Due to these complaints, the role of the space activity suits were redefined for mission Red Dawn; now they function as Emergency Pressure Suits. These suits offer less protection against other hazards, as compared to the "old" EVA suits, which have been pressed back into service. Their uses are restricted to inside the [[Habitat]], during liftoff/landing, imminent astroid impact, and IVAs (except in emergency circumstances, such as the sand/lightning storm during mission Red Dawn.)

==Helmet Upgrade==
During the construction of the Space Activity Suits, a new series of [[helmets]] were made to be used in conjunction. These helmets were better-equipped than the older ones, larger, and included a fan to prevent fogging. This fan is much appreciated by the [[astronauts]], for fogging often rendered the older helmets unusable after as few as ten minutes.
After the Space Activity Suits have been downgraded, the helmets remainded in their role as replacements for the "fish bowels".
