Discovery Astronauts Inspect Shuttle For Damage

From The Two-Way

A large piece of foam had fallen away from an external fuel tank after Thursday's launch, which appeared to then hit the shuttle's thermal tiles.


But the incident occurred four minutes into the flight — a time, NASA analysts say, that presents far less danger than in the first moments after launch. The foam reportedly did no damage to the tiles.

Good luck, Astronauts.  Come home safely.

Meanwhile:  Short term conspiracy effect:  Ed Dames' credibility got a big shot in the arm /or amazingly lucky break, didn't it?
