    Hmm, don't like the sound of that docking thingy. Was it not one of those
    that humans had to override that trashed Mir?
    Anyway, from the news, it seems ball games in microgravity are all the
    range at the moment...:-)


    On the other hand, Blue space suits seem to have grabbed a lot of headlines over here.
