- Whew! I thought that was ridiculous to fly a shuttle with just
- USMP-2. Is OAST-2 related to OAST-1 (the 41D solar panel test)?
- DEE is the Dextrous End Effector, right?
-
- Wile I'm a firm beleiver that every mission capable of it should
- have the EDO pallet, why is this mission carrying EDO but not
- next month's Spacelab D-2?
