<This line intentionally left blank> Ok...I'm confused. An article posted to this newsgroup some time ago stated the maiden flight of the Discovery scheduled for 4 June 1984 had been canceled due to the DOD pulling their payload. A more recent article said the flight has been delayed due to the removal of Discovery's APUs for use on one of the other orbiters. An article in the March Sky & Telescope shows the Discovery still scheduled for 4 June and no DOD payload. Could someone in the know please set me straight on the latest launch/payload schedule?

Don't expect Sky and Telescope to be up-to-date. Magazines of this form generally are received at least three months after composition is completed. -- Barry Margolin ARPA: barmar@MIT-Multics UUCP: ..!genrad!mit-eddie!barmar
