I'll look forward to hearing what Walt has to say about the Soviet/Russian space program today. He was very negative about US/Soviet cooperation in space in his book, worrying that we were giving away the store since Apollo was so far ahead of Soyuz. Given that we are no longer enemies with the Russians, I'm curious what he thinks of the current US/Russian cooperation. :RP The new edition includes an update of recent NASA programs, the :RP Shuttle-Mir and the International Space Station.*It also includes :RP commentary on the Columbia accident and Cunningham's suggestions on :RP what it will take to help get NASA back on track. I'm sure he has some excellent ideas on how things could be improved, and I'm sure he will be quite critical of how things have gone since his days in the program. In fact, I would almost expect him to be too critical of the current NASA, though they do perhaps deserve much of the criticism. Jim.
