@z14g2000cwz.googlegroups.com: is there any docking ablity? The shuttle uses the APAS docking system while the Soyuz using probe & drogue. Soyuz can be retrofitted on the ground but not in flight. There was one Soyuz flight (TM-16) that used APAS. A Soyuz so equipped cannot easily dock to ISS since none of the ISS APAS ports are equipped with Kurs. -- JRF Reply-to address spam-proofed - to reply by E-mail, check "Organization" (I am not assimilated) and think one step ahead of IBM.
