I just started reading this group, so forgive me if this is a repeat or non-
kosher.

I just finished reading a book by Payne Stewart (I think - but that is the name
of a golfer, so I could be wrong) called Storming Intrepid.  It is about a
russian agent getting control of a space shuttle that has the final and most
secret and important piece of the SDI platform.  He is going to fly it back down
into Russia.  So the Americans are rushing to get him and the russians are
rushing to get him, as the ship (Intrepid) gets cripled in space.  

It is quite qood because it gives lots of info on the military uses of the
space programs, and lots of info on the Russian shuttle and space program.

I recommend it as good fiction for anyone who likes to read about the shuttle.

Lesley.
