There are 4 (four) ports available at the Russian Segment: -Z Zvezda - avaliable for Soyuz or Progress -X Zarya - available for Soyuz or Progress -Z Zarya - prepared for DC-1 +Z Zarya - not fully equipped yet, should be used for SPP (Russian Science and Power Platform) in the future. For the current configuration schematics you may take a look on my satellite home page (see bellow, unfortunately in Czech only at the moment, bud I am working on an English version). Press ENTER, then "nejnovější aktualizované údaje" (=most recent entries). then select "1998-067A", them press the second from the right button on bottom of screen with text "Popis objektu" (=Object description), then roll slightly downward, select link in line saying "Schéma aktuálního řazení modulů stanice viz." (=Schematics of current linkup of station modules). Lines ending in the void are unused docking ports or berthing mechanisms (as CMB etc.). ---------------------------------------------------------- Antonin Vitek Office: Main Library - Academy of Sciences of the Czech Republic Narodni 3, CZ-115 22 Praha 1, Czech Republic Phone: +420(2)21 40 32 55 **** Note change in phone no. **** Fax: +420(2)24 24 05 26 E-mail:AVITEK@LIB.CAS.CZ My satellite home page: http://www.lib.cas.cz/knav/space.40/index.html Home: Kytin 127, CZ-525 10 p.
