Default Yes-No ( Is this worth the risks?)

So, if they have more than one ball, how many stunts are they actually going
to try?I mean, an American is bound to want to do it as well. Then what
next? Baseball in space?

It will help raise the public profile of the station.

And I don't really think it would be such a danger. If they shoot the
ball towards the aft, it means that they are effectively deceletating
the ball putting it in an elliptical orbit with less energy than the
station. And that means that it will lose altitude faster than the
station and not be a threath to the station.


But when was the last time a Russian was leading the PGA tour?
Maybe they should set up a putt-putt course first
