Now before you say "Dude, those baskets are there in case they have to abort or there is an emergency of some type and the launch can't go forward. duh."
That may be the official story, but if there was an emergency and they had to escape, let me tell
you it wasn't happening friend.
First, consider your situation inside the shuttle before launch. This means you are sealed in your bright orange space suit, boots, gloves, helmet and all.
This is known, optimistically, as the Advanced Crew Escape Suit. It weighs about 90 pounds. The suit comes complete with a "survival backpack, which includes a personal life raft, that is donned
before entering the orbiter."
In addition there is your "undersuit:" Underneath the suits, astronauts wear "Maximum Absorbency Garment" (MAGs) urine-containment trunks (resembling "Depends" incontinence shorts)
and blue-colored thermal underwear, which has plastic tubing woven into the garments allowing
for liquid cooling and ventilation, the latter being handled by a connector located on the astronaut's left waist. You are also strapped into your seat. Various oxygen hoses and other
attachments connect you to the shuttle. Did I mention you are sitting in a chair, but since the shuttle is in the vertical you are lying on your back in this rig with your knees kipped up like some
bizarre Pilates exercise.
The main hatch through which you came into the crew area is somewhere behind you. It is dogged down and sealed to keep air and pressure in and the vacuum of space out.
And so there you are sitting in the shuttle and in, say, final countdown mode waiting for lift off.
"Final countdown mode" means that everybody not inside the shuttle who wants to live
(or at least keep their ears functioning) has long since left the area around the shuttle and gone
several miles away. Several long miles away. So there you are, you and your crew mates waiting to take off and then something goes wrong.
Here's, according to NASA, is all you have to do to save your butt.
1) Unplug everything and get the straps off you.
2) Get to the sealed hatch and unseal and open it.
3) Leave the shuttle and stand up on the gantry. Then cross the gantry, avoiding the elevator that brought you up.
4) On the far side of the gantry is an open platform with slots in the floor below and a lot of cables slanting down and away from the whole shebang. These cables are called "Zip lines."
5) Suspended underneath these zip lines at floor level are wicker baskets. You will climb into these. (Tick, tock, tick, tock... time's a wastin'.)
6) Did I mention you will get into these wicker baskets backwards? You will. Then you will release the basket.
7) Upon releasing the basket you will be propelled backwards and downwards at a very high velocity along the long slanting cable for some distance towards a massive pile of sandbags.
8) Assuming everything's been calibrated properly your basket will shoot through an opening in the sandbags and come to a stop next to the entrance to a highly armored and sealable bunker at the bottom.
9) You will then haul your space-suited self out of the basket, open the door to the bunker and go inside. You will close the door leaving it to any of your more tardy fellow astronauts to open and enter the bunker if their "slide for life" has worked out.
10) Once inside the bunker, which is still relatively close to the now about to explode Space Shuttle, you have to ask yourself one question, "Do I feel lucky?"
Keep in mind it takes 3 "Caped Crusaders" (NASA crew engineers) about 17 to 30 minutes to help the Shuttle crew board the Shuttle and get all strapped in and hooked up to the ships systems.
According to NASA once the alarms go off to abort the launch and evacuate the Shuttle you have roughly THREE minutes to escape the Shuttle and launch gantry!
The truss arm with the "White Room" attached remains in the extended position until 7 minutes, 24 seconds before launch to serve as an emergency escape route for the flight crew.
Now I will tell you that there is NO WAY in Hell those 7 Astronauts, given all the factors that are
involved are going to get out of that Shuttle before it blows itself up and everything else around it sky high!
So the idea that those 7 baskets on ziplines are there in case of an emergency so the Astronauts can escape is pure BS.
You can choose to believe it or not, as for me, I don't believe a single word that NASA or the Satanic Cult to which they belong says.
