Writes Steven Ng: “It looks like Nasa broke the part of the space station we taxpayers didn’t pay for (sort of), the Russian navigation and guidance computers. When they brought their fancy new power system on-line, they crashed the Russian guidance computers: “Engineers say the computer problem may have been triggered by trouble with a power converter used to feed electricity from the new U.S. solar arrays into the Russian segment of the station. Engineers also are studying how ‘noisy’ the power might be and the possibility of electromagnetic interference.”
