- From my recolection, the Moonraker story was that one of the shuttles that
- the criminal wanted to used needed replaced, so they stole the shuttle from
- the ferry 747 by igniting the engines, but they didn't go into space, just
- to where he was going to launch the other 5 shuttles of people. Was part
- of this crazy story about going into space too???
