The audio level is far too low, please crank it up at least 10 dB. The volume is set at max on my iPad and i can barley hear it. And NO my iPad works fine as my music downloads play well clear and loud. Your audio technician schould give it a look as soon as he or she wakes up.
The volume itself is fine (I didn’t have to adjust my volume, their voices were just as clear as any YouTube video with someone speaking), there’s simply a lot of a lot of ambient white noise.
This is pretty wonderful though I cannot hear the speaker Sylvain Lodiot. and earlier todayI had two ladies voices on top of each other. Glad to learn Australia is able to play apart.
Our rock is not a big as yours. Ha Ha Ayers Rock vs Comet. We are praying for all to go well.
This morning i heard the nice female voice telling us that the landers mass was 1.5 kg, this embarrassment was then politely corrected to a 100 kg reality.
Also the presentation technic classes should be updated for some of the persons doing live performance. This is important and i am not telling this to step on any toes.
Also i noted that in the background something that might have ben a thermal scan of the comet draped over a shape model, if this is as i hope it is then please post this in a Blog.
Bad luck with the landers thruster it will hopefully be cured or not essential to the landing success. I hope the vibration that will occur is releasing the valve:)
This must rate as one the highest achievements in the history of mankind. The moon landing was something quite special, but at least it was a relatively static target, but this, and after ten years and x squillion miles, is mind boggling. Let’s hope the landing is safe and secure. 24 carat gold medals to all those involved. I await with bated breath the second signal,- four o’clock?
Congratulations to the ESA on a job well done
