The 7 years begins on the date of last activity. THE CORRECT ANSWER TO THIS QUESTION IS.....THE 7 YEAR REPORTING PERIOD STARTS FROM THE FIRST MISSED PAYMENT THAT LED TO A CHARGE OFF OR COLLECTION ON THAT ACCOUNT... BY LAW A CREDITOR MUST REPORT AN ACCOUNT AS A CHARGE OFF AFTER 180 DAYS OF NON PAYMENT..... WHICH IS WHY IT IS CONSIDERED TO BE 7 YRS + 180 DAYS BEFORE IT WILL BE REMOVED FROM YOUR REPORT. THIS IS THE FEDERAL LAW REGARDING REPORTING.....THERE IS ALSO THE STATE LAWS WHICH CONCERNS THE STATUE OF LIMITATIONS ON WHICH YOU CAN BE SUED ON A DEBT GONE BAD. EVERY STATE HAS THEIR OWN TIME FRAME REGARDING THIS AND IT SHOULD NOT BE CONFUSED WITH THE 7 YR + 180 DAY FEDERAL TIME LINE. Check with your state laws, each state has different statures of limitations, and any time you have contact, by letter, phone etc to the collection agency, a new date can be set from that time. It will only stay on your report for 7 years if you have absolutely have had no contact whatsoever with the creditor.

Why do the cargo bay doors have to be opened when the shuttle is in orbit?

To allow cooling of the Shuttle: The interior side of the two cargo bay doors are covered with radiators. Those radiators are connected to the overall cooling system of the Shuttle. These radiators have to be exposed to space (i.e. the doors have to be opened) to reject their heat and avoid overheating of the Shuttle subsystems. This is why the cargo bay doors are opened as soon as the Shuttle reaches its orbit, and are closed only shortly before re-entry.
