NINE HOURS
B the mission goes to six orbits
it would involve a nine-hour flight,
compared with the 4% hours of
three-orbit missions. The two U.S.
orbital flights so far have been
for three turns.
The flight plan will call for con-
siderable drifting flight to con-
serve fuel for re-entry maneuver-
ing.

orbits it would mean landing
