NASA TARGETS SPACE SHUTTLE ATLANTIS LAUNCH ON JAN. 10
HOUSTON - NASA's Space Shuttle Program managers have targeted Jan. 10 for the
launch of shuttle Atlantis' STS-122 mission to the International Space Station.
"The workforce has stepped up to and met every challenge this year,"
said Wayne Hale, Space Shuttle Program manager at NASA's Johnson Space Center.
"Moving the next launch attempt of Atlantis to Jan. 10 will allow as many
people as possible to have time with family and friends at the time of year
when it means the most. A lot has been asked of them this year and a lot will
be asked of them in 2008."
The liftoff date from NASA's Kennedy Space Center, Florida, depends on the
resolution of a problem in a fuel sensor system. The shuttle's planned launches
on Dec. 6 and Dec. 9 were postponed because of false readings from the part of
the system that monitors the liquid hydrogen section of the tank.
Atlantis' main objective during its STS-122 mission to the International Space
Station is to install and activate the European Space Agency's Columbus
laboratory, which will provide scientists around the world the ability to
conduct a variety of life, physical and materials science experiments.
