> My question is did NASA learn from this and improved the scheduling for future missions? Seems they have with ISS unless I’m wrong? They have a mixed record. If you read Bryan Burrough's Dragonfly, which includes some first-hand accounts, you can see that the NASA astronauts who visited Mir had varied results in this regard but the overall pattern was that of a lax, highly understaffed effort towards scheduling and training on those missions. > Seems they have with ISS unless I’m wrong? That program has a better reputation for sure. I'd love book recommendations if anyone has anything.
