alb@brunix.UUCP (Adam Buchsbaum) (03/08/85)

The crew of the cancelled Challenger mission, including Senator
Jake Garn, with the exception of the French astronaut Patrik Baudry,
will fly the hybrid Discovery mission later this month.  The
Discovery crew will be reassigned, probably to whatever mission
will now pick up LDEF, which was remoed from Discovery's flight
plan with the cancellation of the Challenger mission.  Baudry
has been assigned to a seven-day flight in June.
