Hilander72 Posted November 20, 2006 Share Posted November 20, 2006 Cosmonaut prepares for golf stunt Flight engineer Mikhail Tyurin will knock a lightweight ball off a tee above the ISS's Russian docking port. Nasa held up the stunt for months while safety experts checked possible flight paths to make sure the ball would not head back towards the space station. "There is absolutely no re-contact issue with the space station." Link to full article (BBC) First 'Mass-driver' in orbit... ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
