Code Of Conduct For ISS Crews Endorsed
Washington (AFP) Sept. 20, 2000 "A code of conduct for crews on board the International Space Station" has been endorsed, chief of the planning department of the Gagarin Cosmonaut Training Center Yuri Kargapolov told journalists on Wednesday. The code, which vests the crew commander with extraordinary powers for the duration of the flight aboard the ISS, was endorsed in Washington by the ISS project participant-countries in September after the landing of the U.S. space shuttle Atlantis following the completion its scheduled flight to the ISS, he said. The code is based on similar law-binding regulations for air and sea craft staffs. What made its drafting difficult was the multinational composition of the crews to work on board the ISS, Kargapolov said.
