Resist self-delusion and irrational misinterpretation, from all angles.
Who tells anyone to "stay vector"? Ever, anywhere? What a preposterous, meaningless misinterpretation of the phoneme stream.
Ask anyone actually even marginally familiar with standard space jargon what is being said. They will tell you that the Capcom is telling the astronauts that Mission Control is sending up an Orbiter state vector.
Orbiter state vector.
NOT
Order to stay vector.
Oh, wait -- the rule is -- DON'T ask people who understand the jargon to interpret it correctly. Count on -- and keep them that way -- people to be uninformed and misinformed, to swallow even the most preposterous rewording of normal space conversations.
This isn't funny. It's sad almost beyond words.

Btw... on another note, I wonder at what point they are going to realize that they need regulations in place to regulate trash and crap floating around our planet? I'm sure it will be like our history, where once again, once we are deep in a hole, we say "Oh.. huh, maybe we shouldn't toss trash all over the place!" It rather pisses me off to be quite honest. You'd think NASA would have more brains than this.

They make no explanation. Some skeptics said they were cosmic rays until that was shot down. No one knows what it is that is being captured. And they display shapes and other similar markings. And there is no plasma coating.
Dr. Weinberg, at the think tank at SFU, way back in the 90's said that it was this 2nd space phen. that he could not explain. Nobody he knew in his NASA community could explain it either! Lexx CCD in Europe said it's not the camera & some have suggested living UFOs. But NASA says nothing in the TLC clip other than they are being seen. The rest is TLC voice over.
