Shuttle Mission Ends With Praise Despite Damage At Cape
Discovery's discouraging landing included a blown tire and wing damage but NASA called the mission remarkable. Senator Jake Garn, after seven days in zero gravity, smiled for cameras as technicians assessed a gash and tire issues that could delay Challenger's April 29 rehearsal. Garn, in Houston after the flight, recalled the surreal moments and said the experience was incredible. The crew's return followed questions about brakes and a drifting satellite in orbit.
