This. I destroyed my last two phones due to women’s pocket sizes being inadequate for current phones, despite having cases for them. Only carrying around a phone and not a purse is super convenient.

Even though 0.102 is above the legal limit, it seems quite low to be the cause of driving off a cliff... Money is still on this being on purpose.
George Dvorsky has already verified my identity, which is why I am no longer in the grays. I could link you to my professional profile, but I don’t really feel like linking that to my Kinja account. But, if you want something that only those in the meeting would know, the tv in the meeting room at Silver Spring Civic…
I already explained that on other people’s comments. No, it’s not they didn’t decide not to enforce it until Elon did it; every single US company that has a camera/any sort of remote sensing device in space needs a license, and this is definitely something NOAA pays attention to. They didn’t enforce it for SpaceX…
Trump actually loves Elon. He even talked about the Tesla that went to space in one of his meetings, and tweeted about it https://mashable.com/2018/02/07/elon-musk-donald-trump-falcon-heavy/#pwocM6J6yqqu This has nothing to do with the administration, this has to do with how remote sensing laws are written and the…
NASA isn’t a regulatory body. NOAA does actually launch satellites in collaboration with NASA (http://www.noaa.gov/satellites ). You get a launch license from the FAA Office of Commercial Space Transportation, communications from the FCC (because you are going to need to relay data even if you are remote sensing), and…
Nope, private citizens count too. Here’s the full definition: Any person subject to the jurisdiction or control of the United States who wishes to operate a private remote-sensing space system, including but not limited to: an individual who is a citizen of the United States; a corporation, partnership, association or…
The UN’s Outer Space Treaty covers this; pretty much all space law was set right after the launch of Sputnik (there were a few treaties in the 70s, but just elaborated on earlier principles; nothing has successfully passed since). Nation states are responsible for ensuring that companies under their jurisdiction are…
The 120 days is for any remote sensing license, which applies to any camera pointed at Earth. A lot of licenses historically have taken longer than the 120 days (there are unlimited extensions right now on NOAA’s end). They’ve cut down the delay quite a bit, but honestly there’s a lot of red tape because they have to…
You’re a bit off. Doesn’t have to be launched on US soil, just has to be a US company. Yes, no regulator thinks that the webcam is of national security concern but there’s no exemption process right now for any camera facing Earth in space. Someone needs to write that into the regs, and then figure out what parameters…
Because it’s pointing at Earth. Yeah, it’s weird, and there’s a movement by this administration to move this function out of NOAA to Department of Commerce level.
The law is about pointing any camera in space toward Earth. The broadcasting part just made the approval take longer.
It depends if any US companies are involved in either as the satellite company or launch vehicle. None if no US company involvement.
Please ungray me, as I have actual helpful information as I was at the meeting where Tahara discussed this: The reason they didn’t enforce it for previous SpaceX missions was because NOAA was not tracking the issue. SpaceX was the one who approached NOAA for this launch, asking if they needed a license. There’s no…
If it’s a US company, or launched on a US vehicle, then NOAA has regulatory authority.
I was at the meeting where Tahara explained this. The reason they didn’t enforce it for previous SpaceX missions was because NOAA was not tracking the issue. SpaceX was the one who approached NOAA for this launch, asking if they needed a license. There’s no mechanism for exempting any Earth-viewing camera in space…

How is peanut butter a liquid?! It 100% does not conform to the shape of its container unless forced. I call bs.
It was more about how she did it. She was super insistent that it couldn’t possibly be my signature. Now if she just said, “can I see your id”, it would’ve been different...
I had someone in the US do that once, and argue with me that my signature was not the same as the one on the back of my card. They looked almost identical, minus the difference due to the difficulties in signing a piece of plastic. Retrospectively, I should’ve just taken my business elsewhere. Europe they check all…
