Default Automated DOL PAD For STS-114

On this page: http://www.nasa.gov/returntoflight/crew/dol_pad.html which
lists the deorbit numbers into KSC for orbit #201, the rolls for the
second and third roll reversals are blank. Does this mean they're not
going to be done, or are they TBD?


You'd better hope they're going to be done! Prepare yourself for a
seat-of-the-pants reentry, since NASA and USA got by with a
seat-of-the-pants launch.

On an optimistic note, never fear; Eileen is here. Don't forget about
that guy from Burlington, Iowa, either; and Steve Robinson should be no
slouch as a flight engineer. I'm sure they've all been rehearsing a
manual reentry for mucho months, and they seem eager for the challenge.
May God be their copilot.
