Guest guest Posted July 21, 2005 Report Share Posted July 21, 2005 NASA to launch Discovery Tuesday KENNEDY SPACE CENTER, Florida (CNN) -- NASA officials decided Wednesday to go ahead with the launch of the space shuttle Discovery Tuesday morning, even though they have still not definitively found what caused a fuel sensor malfunction that forced the mission to be scrubbed last week. NASA engineers suspect electronic grounding problems or electromagnetic interference to be the most likely causes of the problem. Shuttle program manager Bill Parsons said space agency officials were " comfortable " with moving toward launch while the grounding is repaired and additional tests are conducted. " We believe the best way to go through this is to do a countdown. If the sensors work like we think they will, then we'll launch on that day. If anything goes not per the plan we have in front of us, then we'll have a scrub, " he said at a news conference. The countdown will begin Saturday afternoon, with liftoff scheduled for 10:34 a.m. Tuesday. John Muratore, NASA's shuttle systems manager, said that as a safety measure, engineers plan to develop a detailed program of monitoring and testing for the the run-up to the launch to detect any additional problems with the fuel tank sensor. http://www.cnn.com/2005/TECH/space/07/20/discovery.launch/index.html Dear List Members, Dasha is Ve/Sa/Ke/Ra/Ma.

Guest guest Posted July 21, 2005 Report Share Posted July 21, 2005 Hi Jorge, There is an apparent discrepency in the launch chart cast by you. The time of take off is 10:39 whereas you have settled for 10:34. What is the reason for this difference ?

Guest guest Posted July 24, 2005 Report Share Posted July 24, 2005 Dear Raziya Sultana, Thank you for your correction. It seems there was an update in the CNN article. Previously it was referred 10:34, as you can see in my original message: NASA to launch Discovery Tuesday KENNEDY SPACE CENTER, Florida (CNN) -- NASA officials decided Wednesday to go ahead with the launch of the space shuttle Discovery Tuesday morning, even though they have still not definitively found what caused a fuel sensor malfunction that forced the mission to be scrubbed last week.
