[net.columbia] SRB Recovery

sjb (09/06/82)

A Naval vessel and a rocket retrieval ship owned by United
Technologies left Port Canaveral Friday and started sailing
towards the site where the Columbia's 2 SRB's are under water.
They will attempt this week to raise a 40-foot long piece of
one booster, complete with two parachutes and a flight recorder.

	Apparently they are having difficulty in getting the 
SRB's back again. Poor weather conditions on the ocean is giving
the recovery crew's a great deal of trouble keeping the SRB's 
floating.
