You have a very interesting job, I'm impressed. Perhaps you could answer a few questions for me. Why does the space station need to have the Shuttle boost it's orbit? Couldn't they have installed boosters or what ever on the space station itself? Or maybe they could have installed the space station in an orbit that wouldn't decay?
Thanks for your time in answering me.
I am so sorry for being off FR and not answering right away. :-(
I will post an answer in the morning!
