    For Scott Kelly, his role aboard the Soyuz capsule is far different than his previous job as space shuttle commander. He'll just be along for the ride instead of actively flying the vehicle.
    "Well, I'll certainly have a lot less to do during that time in the Soyuz than on a shuttle ascent or entry for that matter. As the flight engineer No. 2 you're sort of a passenger. You do have some responsibilities but it's kind of like being somewhere between mission specialist No. 1 on the shuttle and sitting on the mid-deck, your role. In that regard it will be different. It's kind of neat that it's a rocket, like a traditional rocket, so it'll be good to have that experience especially as we move on to a new vehicle after the space shuttle program."
