Partial transcript of a recent interview with ex-astronaut Sidney Gutierrez, veteran of two shuttle missions and leading advocate of a shuttle escape system (see "Get Out Now"). Sidney Gutierrez: On an earlier flight a window was hit by a little piece of something, and they concluded afterwards it was a piece of chicken the Russians had ejected and was just floating around in space. Popular Science: How'd they know that it was chicken? SG: [NASA scientists] got the material and did an analysis on it. http://www.popsci.com/popsci/aviation/article/0,12543,488430,00.html | |
