Slightly OT but read on..

I had this strange feeling that, as they say, the boot might have been on
the other foot this morning, with the station declaring a spacecraft
emergency with an Electron fault. Luckily, things seem to be not as bad as
first thought, but with a shuttle so close, would they have still evacuated
in the Soyuz, or brought the Shuttle back? My feeling is that they would
just get the hell out on the Soyuz. It would be sad if after all the
exterior success, the place got gutted by fire inside.

Of course is the fire is between you and the Soyuz (not unheard of) you're
out of luck.

Bring back the race-track design!

I think they try to stop the fire with an extinguisher, and if that
does not work: you will be in real trouble....
