  It looks like the ISS crews will return back with the Shuttle and also =
sent to the Station, with the Shuttle.
  The Soyuz spacecraft is meant as a rescue vehicle.
  I remember reading those spacecrafts could remain something like 6 =
months in space before extending too far their design life.
  How long can the actual Soyuz spacecrafts safely remain in orbit, =
attached to ISS? =20
