From: Robert Elton Maas <REM @ MIT-MC> If the TAV doesn't have any rockets or pressurized-gas jets, and just undives up into space and drifts back to atmosphere, it'll be rolling uncontrolably while in space, making it impossible to perform many useful tasks while in space. Also, when it returns it may burn up if it's spinning upon atmosphereic entry. Will it perhaps have some attitude-control rockets or jets to alleviate these problems?
