The reason that the mission to service
Hubble has been cancelled is that they can't guarantee the safety of the crew for trips that are not close to the Space Station (which can serve as a refuge). However, why not carry a Soyuz capsule in the Shuttle cargo bay? Then if there is a problem with Shuttle reentry, the Soyuz can be used as a lifeboat. |
