Bruce Watson says: >>STS is not a Winnebago. It's a dump truck. Allen says: >STS is a Lamborgini: You know, I hate to be a wet rag, but these analogies are pretty much meaningless. The space shuttle is not a winnebago or a dump truck or a Lamborgini (or Lamborghini? It's not in my dictionary). The space shuttle is a space shuttle. To understand what it is and why it was built that way we have to study what it is and why it was built that way. A dump truck, a winnebago and a half million dollar sports car each have different functions, advantages and disadvantages and different people have different interpretations of them. Metaphores are great for expressing images or emotions. They are not very useful for engineering. -- Josh Hopkins jbh55289@uxa.cso.uiuc.edu He who laughs last probably didn't get the joke. ------------------------------ End of Space Digest Volume 17 : Issue 009 ------------------------------
