Whew. That was crazy.
For about 10 minutes they lost comms with the spacecraft.
They rebooted the ground communications system, and are now talking with the spacecraft again.
Apparently the astronauts could hear mission control, but mission control could not hear the astronauts. Some bidirectional data comms were never lost.

@mastodonmigration @AkaSci So... a Zoom call

Continues to be fascinating...
Right now, the start up of the toilet has hit a snag (amber light). They are trouble shooting the system.
Everything else seems 'nominal', meaning OK.

@mastodonmigration @AkaSci "you're on mute" happens even to astronauts I guess

@noplasticshower @mastodonmigration @AkaSci lol. They aren't using MS teams are they?

@Jam123 @mastodonmigration @AkaSci What do you mean by "using"?

Press conference on right now.
Super interesting and informative.
Just want to comment on how refreshing it is to watch dry uncensored straightforward public agency reporting versus the type of PR and boosterism coverage we get from private space corporations who carefully restrict information and even cut off if things don't go well.
Kudos to NASA!

Now they are performing some maneuvers to pilot the spacecraft as would be required in docking maneuvers.
They are going to undock from the ICPS (the first stage) and then approach the ICPS as if it were something they were actually docking with, coming close (15m) from the ICPS.
Edit: Incredible!!!
Edit2: What a great spacecraft! He is reporting how responsive, precise and smooth the maneuvers are.

@mastodonmigration @AkaSci "I can hear you, can you hear me? No? Shit. Well, I'll call you back."
We've all been there.

10m arrival...

Zoomed in fine maneuver control...

They have now backed away from the ICPS and are going to turn the ICPS and perform some docking maneuvers with the side of the ICPS...
