Shuttle pretty much made height no longer a factor, although I believe it still is in the T-38s. The Soyuz capsules are a bit more restrictive, although after Scott Parazynski couldn't fly to Mir due to his height being too tall, the descent module was redesigned a little for the Soyuz TMA craft (Mir used the TM series) to accomodate astronauts of a taller height.</TD></TR><TR bgcolor="#494949"><TD valign=top>ringo67</TD><TD>I got 9 out of 10.I was tripped up by the time to orbital velocity question.</TD></TR><TR bgcolor="#333333"><TD valign=top>Fra Mauro</TD><TD>When I think of the shuttle, I think of a phrase that Bill Parcells once used about Phil Simms, which say something like, you may not like him but you will miss him when he is gone.</TD></TR><TR bgcolor="#494949"><TD valign=top>KSCartist</TD><TD>10 out of 10 but I guessed at the height and wasn't sure about the toilet in Tranquility.</TD></TR><TR bgcolor="#333333"><TD valign=top>Tykeanaut</TD><TD>7/10 - best stick with Mercury, Gemini and Apollo I think!</TD></TR><TR bgcolor="#494949"><TD valign=top>capoetc</TD><TD> <BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR>Originally posted by cspg: [b]Am I really supposed to know who already flew?
