NASA decided to go ahead with the second deployment today, and Discovery's crew complied. American Satellite Co.'s satellite was deployed successfully one orbit later than planned. It was always to have been deployed today, but an emergency deployment of an Australian satellite pushed the scheduled behind. It was the first time in the shuttle program that two satellites were deployed in one day.
