Re: A probable a stupid question....
Patrck Baudry who flew on STS51G in 1985, has been very vocal against going round and round.
He wrote a book about the loss of the adventure spirit in space.
I've heard him on the radio, saw him on TV and read articles in science magazines. Every time, he claims Columbia should have docked to ISS.
The space buffs who found out about this are very astonished he'd ignore such a detail!
39° isn't at all 51°!
