Default Is htv risky?

HTV was never baselined for Node 3. It will be berthed at Node 2 nadir -
just like it has always been planned to be.


Has that been reconsidered and reapproved since 107? I'd think NASA
would have a bit of the butterflies letting HTV loiter that close to
an Orion parked at Node 2, which will always be the case once Orion
starts flying.
