Talk:Space Shuttle Discovery launch on indefinite hold
Add topicNASA have a very annoying habit of only putting the latest news on their front page, only moving it to a (linkable) sub-page after the next bit of news comes out. So here's the main page's text as it is now (it's pd, yeah?): Dan100 (Talk) 23:51, 15 July 2005 (UTC)

"We are going forward on a day by day basis," Space Shuttle Program Deputy Manager Wayne Hale explained during a press conference late Friday. "As soon as we fix the problem, we will be four days from launch. What is that date going to be? We don't know."
John Muratore, Shuttle Systems Engineering and Integration manager, explained twelve teams of engineers across the country are working around the clock to troubleshoot the problem and review data. Further information is expected Monday, but managers are still optimistic about a launch within the current window, which ends July 31.
The STS-114 crew will remain at Kennedy Space Center through the weekend.
