Soyus in orbit

[scottb50]

Watched the launch on NASA TV. Kind of funny when the third stage burned out, pen floating around and the switch pushing device the commander had got away. Nice catch of the pen though!<br /><br />Everything seemed pretty low-key and casual. <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> </div>

Successful docking with some awesome video.

Yeah, I saw it and then I found this interesting story about what's really like to be there in the capsule. The article was written by Gregory Olsen, one of the three space tourist who have been there before. <br /><br />"The Ultimate Vacation: Chronicles Of A Citizen In Space"<br />http://www.orato.com/node/789<br />

Hey there Scott<br /><br />I'm sure it's just an honest mistake but shouldn't it be spelled Soyuz.<br /><br />I wonder how we'd feel if a Russian citizen spelled space &%$#@!tle in a post. <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> <p><br /><strong><font size="3" color="#3366ff">Columbia and Challenger </font></strong></p><p><strong><font size="3" color="#3366ff">Starships of Heroes</font></strong></p> </div>

Scott, you can go back and edit the thread title on your original post if you want to correct the spelling <img src="/images/icons/smile.gif" /> <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> <p><font color="#000080"><em><font color="#000000">But the Krell forgot one thing John.

Well, on behalf of Russian citizens... Soyuz is actually <i>pronounced</i> Soyus in Russian.
