On this page: http://www.nasa.gov/returntoflight/crew/dol_pad.html which
lists the deorbit numbers into KSC for orbit #201, the rolls for the
second and third roll reversals are blank. Does this mean they're not
going to be done, or are they TBD?
Bruce... the second and third roll reversals are always done, but the
specific roll angles are not ever enumerated specifically on the DOL PAD
(Deorbit/Landing Preliminary Advisory Data, for those of you wanting to know
the acronym).
Contrary to any resident conspiracy kook fantasies, this is nothing new or
different...
