I got (as posted in game summary):

    3.>Coop you are clear to launch probe, data dropout minimal


Couldn't hear the audio myself, but this transcript really rang a bell for me. You say "altercation", which instantly reminded me of Cloverfield ARG, when Tagruato Corp. issued the following statement:

"There has been an altercation at the Chaui Station."

This headline referred to the monster attacking an oil platform. So what is the "altercation" about this time?


Yeah, Parts of them are kinda tricky to make out-Altercation was my best fit, not 100% it's correct...

That's what I thought it sounded like as well but??
Here is the clip - it's at the start.

Seems can't post attachments today on here.

Also I think now the satellite is the ship MrFett mentioned - Vostok series

 		SL still hungry? Maintain trajectory. [ ] Sierra Bravo. Prepare for blastoff in T minus ten.

Well, I think it may say 'here', or 'tier' which isn't a code word at all.

 		I think it's Sierra Sierra Bravo. Thanks for posting that! How did you get it, if I may ask?

Thanks for the correction, not satellite, spaceship. Didn't catch that!

More on the Vostok (or Wostok depending on your language)
http://www.astronautix.com/flights/vostok1.htm
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vostok_1

I don't think there's enough detail to distinguish between the various Vostok missions/spaceships. Based on the wikipedia entry, though, it still has the booster stage attached. Further interesting that the RP.com version has the antennae in the wrong place.

 		Maybe there's something important about Vostok, like one of the dates of a major milestone or locations that were prominant in the Vostok program?

Heck, maybe The Russians and the Americans were super secretly working together against aliens? Many of the milestones of the space race were accomplished by both sides fairly close together in date. And while the two were pitted against each other and the space race was an extension of the cold war there was a sense of comradery present. Maybe that was for the science/adventure that made up the race but you never know.

 		I don't know if there could be anything more important about vostok than the fact that Vostok 1 was first manned spacecraft ever. And it was launched - April 12, 1961.

And American Mercury project (Coopers one) was american first manned space project.

I believe that those two things are not a coincidence.

Actually Alan Shepard was the first American in space. May 5, 1961 on Freedom 7. It was a suborbital flight.

 		Looks like the control voice is telling us that the name of Capn Coops ship is "Destroyer"

Anyone else hear this?
