Cool! Thanks for the link.

Cool. I've been following this mission with interest, sounds like it could get dicey.

Is anyone else baffled that sending people INTO SPACE is more or less backpage news? We've been doing it for years and it still amazes me. Of course, I am an aero engineer geek.

I used to work on the Spacelab program. We loaned one of our large payload bay carriers (called a Pallet) to Goddard Space Flight Center years ago for Hubble servicing missions. I check the photos for this flight and that Pallet is in the payload bay - they're still using it...

Exciting stuff.
