Studying jetpacks with JET

Well now that I have something besides rolling widgets I want to talk to myself some more (and to whoevers monitoring this, I know they wouldn't just let us have these and not use them as monitoring tools).
Today we studied jet packs, I know we already did that but that was just basics. Now were learning more than just how to operate them in an emergency situation. I'm learning basic repairs, advanced functions and how to handle real life situations. Such as; what do you do if your out of jet fuel and slowly floating out into space, you have no tether and only 10 minutes of oxgen left.
The answer apparently is to radio for another jetpacker because as students it's too risky to use the emergency fuel, it's more potent and if you use too much at once it can leak into your suit or explode... And personally I'd rather use the radio than potentially explode

Darn those... Things

It went pretty well... The extra testing that is.
A couple of "simulated" rovers almost got tipped but no one failed epicly or got kicked out of JET. tommorow comes testing on the rovers. Is there really anything I can talk about not related to rovers?
Let's see, solar power... No the rovers are solar powered.
Today's activities? Naw, they were all rover based as well.
Well since I'm sick and tired of... "them" and there's nothing else to talk about I'll end it here

Big screen > tiny screen

Now I can see why they made these remotes so crazy big and stuff. We used them to hook out to a simulation machine and we drove a virtual rover from the main rear view camera. Basically we got to sit in front of a screen and play a video game today... The moon is way better than my school.
Also as part of the JET program tomorrow with the rest of the group I'll be doing extra rover work. Since JET is more advanced we will be controlling our rover from just the angle detectors and tiny screen on the remote.
We won't have the main camera on so while before we just used the remotes camera to see what we got stuck on, with JET we'll be using only the secondary camera.
Note to self, rest eyes before taking tommorows course, that screen is tiny

Rovers and schematics

Awsome! Today we started our moon rover training, we can't drive for real yet but we all have our own remote. Were supposed to get used to the controller, memorize what each of the buttons and levers does and customize the customizable ones to our preferences. The remote is almost a unit of it's own, it has a tiny screen to see the rover veiw and it also has a mini computer inside it to calculate the angle and speed of the the land rover. If it's getting dangerously close to tipping or is tipped it will tell which direction it's tipping and such. I can see why they gave us each our own because we couldn't study it without one, it's too complexe.
Note to self, diagram and schematics of remote is under Training: Land rover: remote, in the log files,
