Una anticipazione “sicura” con estratti di presentazioni NASA/ESA
“The ISS program and International Partners have agreed on new launch dates caused by the delay of the STS 117 mission. The launch window for STS 117 now opens on 8. June 2007, all following flight have been adjusted accordingly. On Monday 16.April the ISS and shuttle program will jointly discuss and approve the flight plans. A preliminary Increment overview for Increment 16 was presented and is attached to this e mail. Major changes of interest to us are the slightly shift of increment start by 5 days in favor of daytime landing for Soyuz 14S, slip of STS 120/10A into increment 16 as well as mission 1J moves into Increment 17. The orbiter swap for flight STS 122/1E has been agreed which will reduce the mission to 11+1 days again. Launch date for STS 122/1E has been proposed for 6.December 2007, however the shuttle program has not yet agreed.”
