Misleading headline. NASA accidentally broadcast a simulated ISS distress message.
Two very different things.
Not to be pedantic but I think the headline is fine.
If you simulated a fire in a building for training purposes and upon activating the fire alarm, it got broadcast to emergency services when it shouldn’t, you did accidentally broadcast the fire alarm, simulated or not.
The “accidentally” already implies it was done in error, suggesting it was not an emergency. On the other hand, if it was a real emergency, and just wasn’t meant to be publicly broadcasted, I feel like the headline would’ve looked different.
Not A Space Agency
What is it then?
A front for black projects
Why do you think that?
They very much are, the actual problem that happened was that audio channels got mixed up on a livestream. It’s really not that big of a deal
