ANDERSON.ES@XEROX.ARPA (08/29/84)
Following is NASA's TV schedule for the shuttle Discovery's maiden flight. The flight has been postponed again, this time 24 hours, so the launch is now set at 0835 CDT on Thursday, August 30. Since liftoff is still at the same scheduled time, I would assume all other times will remain the same and only the day of each event will be pushed back by one. I would not normally send such a large file (15.6KB) to a distribution list, but it contains much useful information, and I think everyone would be interested in seeing it before liftoff. If I was in error for sending such a large file, I apoligize. Enjoy.
