[net.space] What's happening up there?

From:  Wmartin@OFFICE-3 (Will Martin)

Would anyone with knowledge of what's going on with the current shuttle
mission, or access to news service articles on the subject, please post
all the info you can on the problems that are going on, with the
satellite(s) and anything else.  I haven't seen any television news
coverage on this, and only heard a few sparse reports on radio.

I am getting the impression that this mission has been an unmitigated
disaster, and I hope to hear that things are not as bad as they seem.

Also, I foolishly lost or misplaced the list of frequencies on which the
space flight center ham radio club is retransmitting the NASA audio feed
of the ground-to-shuttle communications. Could someone please post that
list?  Thanks much!

If my memory is correct (I read the paper several hours ago, give me
a break..) they spend most of their time watching TV and arguing about
the U.S.'s chances in the Olympics.
