Shuttle: Next flight may be a year away
Officials say a six to fourteen month timeline is needed to fix O-rings and test a remedy after the shuttle disaster. NASA leaders warn a next flight could be about a year away with a small crew and minimal payload if issues are resolved. In Washington, a presidential commission plans hearings on objections to the January launch and NASA pressure claims. A recovered metal fragment, possibly from the shuttle main tank, was examined near Cape Canaveral as recovery efforts continue.
