Henry Spencer always likes to point out that in the future, EVA's will
necessarily need to become more self sufficient. *On Mars missions, NASA's
Mission Control won't be there to micromanage (Henry's word) the EVA's
because round trip times for radio waves to/from Mars can be on the order of
1/2 an hour.


Speaking of which, does anyone know how Henry's doing nowadays?

Fine, from what I can tell. He's on the aRocket email list and posts
several times a week. The signal to noise ratio is much better on that list
than on any Usenet newsgroup.
