Astronauts on board the shuttle prepared to come back to Earth tomorrow, forced back early by the threat of Hurricane Dean. Using a laser-tipped boom the astronauts searched for damage on the nose and wings of the craft that may cause a problem during their fiery re-entry.
Apparently willing to tempt fate, even with a school teacher on board, NASA has decided that the huge gouge in the belly of the shuttle poses no threat.
The crew did not maneuver the 100-foot robotic arm and extension boom under the shuttle’s gouged belly Sunday. Engineers have already determined that the small but deep gouge, caused by launch debris, poses no danger.
I feel bad for whoever has the job of cleaning out those spacesuits they have to wear.
