NASA Gives the OK for Discovery Launch
November 30th 2006 01:36
NASA senior managers have unanimously agreed to launch Space Shuttle Discovery on December 07 9:35pm EST.
Commander Mark Polanski will take a six man crew to continue building of the International Space Station. Specifically they aim to start up the Space Stations cooling and power systems.
This may prove to be one of the more complex missions, as Associate Administrator for Space Operations Bill Gerstenmaier said after a two day meeting to discuss plans "What struck me during this meeting was how complex this mission is and how it fits into the next series of assembly missions...".
Let’s just hope it won’t be disaster...
