How can something like EOS - in polar orbit - be "part of" the Space
Station?  Is that just the budget cubbyhole?  Also, how does NASA plan
to "refurbish" AIRS if it's in polar orbit?  Is this dependent on a
working OMV?  Surely a polar Shuttle mission would be too expensive 
for a purpose like this.
