Will the next launch be on June 4? I ask this because I am interested in taking the trip to KSC to see it happen. I am also interested in any info on where to stay; how early to get there; what the closest (best) possible viewing area is for us non-V.I.P. types. Also, is the film "Hail Columbia" being shown in the vicinity of the KSC. Thank you for any information. Bill Pennock AT&T Information Systems Laboratories Holmdel, NJ ... houxg!ariel!wrp

According to the most recent issue of Aviation Week & Space Technology (available at many libraries), June 20 is the planned launch date for STS-41D (the twelfth shuttle mission). It is planned to be a seven day mission with a six person crew.
