Japanese HTV (not HIV) has been docked to the Int'l Space Station
Today's newspaper proudly announces the docking of Japan's new HTV (H-2 Transfer Vehicle) to the International Space Station. It says that the HTV (it is neither HIV nor H-Television) will be the only large transfer vehicle after retirement of the American Shuttle.
Good. I was relieved that it was not HIV virus that was docked to the Station.
Japan is developing space technology with fanfare, but no matter what she does, she is from the start dismissed. The implication of this new technology, however, should not be neglected.
