The Discovery crew today successfully deployed Syncom 4, which later started on its journey to geosynchronous orbit. Afterwards, Commander Joe Engle began the sequence of 12 rocket firings that will bring Discovery within 35 feet of Syncom 3, stranded last April. In two spacewalks this weekend, astronauts will try to fix the ailing satellite.
