Re-entry of TMA-2
When TMA-1 returned to Earth, the onboard computers switched to ballistic
decent mode instead of the normal mode, resulting in higher G loads on the crew and a touchdown several (hundred?) kilometers short of the planned area. The bug was identified as being some kind hardware anormaly in the descent control unit. At this point, TMA-2 had already been launched. Does anybody know what kind of meassures the Russians have taken to avoid something similar during the upcoming re-entry of TMA-2? Has some kind of patch been installed in the Soyuz computers? /Nikolaj
