"Now, I've never flown in space; but the folks who have say that on landing day, you know, you've just spent maybe a week and a half, sometimes two weeks in orbit and you're used to the things happening slowly in space"
- Duane G. Carey
About this Quote
In this quote, Duane G. Carey is assessing the experience of landing a spacecraft after hanging around in orbit. He confesses that he has never ever personally flown in space, however he has actually talked to those who have. According to them, the transition from the slow-moving environment of area to the busy landing day can be quite disconcerting. After investing a week and a half or perhaps 2 weeks in orbit, the astronauts have ended up being accustomed to the slow pace of things in area. So when they lastly go back to Earth, the sudden rush of activity and speed can be frustrating. This quote highlights the plain contrast in between the calmness of space and the chaos of landing day.
