Astronauts Ken Mattingly and Henry Hartsfield fixed the Getaway Special today, after receiving instructions from Mission Control on how to complete the circuit that activated the unit. Because of the delay, two of the experiments inside would not work, but the other seven began accumulating data as expected. In other news, the Hartsfield and Mattingly had trouble closing the cargo bay doors all the way, possibly due to some warping from the extreme heat and cold they were subjected to in test; however, after a while, they succeeded in closing them. It is essential that they be closed for reentry.
