CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. -- Repair work to space shuttle Discovery's external fuel tank begins to wrap up in the Vehicle Assembly Building at NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida. Technicians modified 94 support beams, called stringers, on the tank's intertank region by fitting pieces of metal, called radius blocks, over the stringers' edges. They also were re-applying foam to the modified areas of the tank. Attached to its fuel tank and two solid rocket boosters, Discovery is scheduled to roll out to Launch Pad 39A atop a giant crawler-transporter on Jan. 31.Discovery's next launch opportunity to the International Space Station on the STS-133 mission is targeted for Feb. 24.

CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. - Mechanical engineering students from Louisiana State University joined engineers and scientists at Launch Pad 39B at NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida as the students toured the facility to have a look at the flame trench. The students, taking pictures of the flame deflector that divides the trench, signed up to help designers looking for new, flame and vibration-resistant materials to line the trench. The students are to build a scaled-down version of the flame trench that Kennedy's scientists can use to try out sample materials for the trench. If the samples work in the lab, they can be tried out in the real flame trenches at Launch Pad 39A and 39B.The launch pad has been refurbished extensively and work is continuing to modify the pad to support a variety of launch vehicles in the future.
