''Godspeed Discovery'' |

This will likely become a popular page in the next 48 hours. Let's try to be polite to one another, clear, complete, and accurate. And let's be careful out there... :-)<br>--[[User:Baylink|Baylink]] 00:07, 13 July 2005 (UTC) |

== Cost? == |
|||
Anyone know the cost of building ''STS-114''? If so, please leave a message on my [[User talk:Thorpe|talk]] page. [[User:Thorpe|• Thorpe •]] 18:26, 13 July 2005 (UTC) |

== September 17, 2009 == |

That's when they'll start flying again. |

* Very funny. Stop [[Special:Contributions/68.91.113.252|vandalizing]] pages. —[[User:Charles O'Rourke|Charles O'Rourke]] 19:43, July 13, 2005 (UTC) |

This isn't vandalism, this is THE TRUTH!!!!!!! |
|||
== Next launch attempt == |
|||
According to the press conference this afternoon, the most optimistic date for a second attempt would be Saturday. No date has been set, tentative or otherwise.

'''Quote from that link''' (in case external page is edited): |
|||
:NASA managers continue to analyze the issue with the Engine Cut-Off sensor on Space Shuttle Discovery's External Tank. The sensor protects an orbiter's main engines by triggering them to shut down in the event fuel runs unexpectedly low. For the moment, no new launch date for Discovery has been set. During the briefing, Space Shuttle Program Deputy Manager Wayne Hale said the most optimistic possibility for the next launch attempt could be as early as this Saturday, July 16. Additional information will be posted as it becomes available. (posted at 00;21 UTC) |
|||
Quick update, earliest launch date now pushed back to Sunday.--[[User:Changlc|Loren]] 19:55, 14 July 2005 (UTC) |

From [http://nytimes.com/aponline/science/AP-Space-Shuttle.html?hp&ex=1121400000&en=97212ab43e8b2b12&ei=5094&partner=homepage NY Times] |
|||
:CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. (AP) -- NASA said Thursday that it will not make another attempt to launch space shuttle Discovery until at least Sunday -- and even that is a ''really optimistic good-luck scenario.'' |
|||
:Deputy shuttle program manager Wayne Hale said the space agency still probably faces several days of troubleshooting to figure out what caused the faulty fuel-gauge reading that forced the cancellation of Wednesday's launch attempt. |
|||
:The only way the shuttle would be able to fly on Sunday is ''if we go in and wiggle some wires and find a loose connection,'' said Hale, who conceded that was unlikely. |
|||
== spaceflights each crew member completed == |
|||
Since the current mission has not been completed these numbers appear to be off by one. Perhaps it would be better to say |
|||
: spaceflights each crew member completed prior to this mission |
|||
and decrement each of the numbers. [[User:Pretzelpaws|Pretzelpaws]] 18:09, 15 July 2005 (UTC) |

: I was thinking the exact same thing. --[[User:DNordquist|DNordquist]] 17:36, 26 July 2005 (UTC) |

== delay's effect on atlantis == |
|||
i don't understand this part, isn't having more time to get atlantis ready a *good* thing? I guess I don't understand the arguments listed there in the article, or it's not clear. |

== Update == |

Can someone kindly update [[List of human spaceflights, 2000-present]] [[User:Rich Farmbrough|Rich Farmbrough]] 15:18, 26 July 2005 (UTC) |

== wikinews link needs updating == |
|||
the link to the wikinews article about "on indefinite hold" needs to be changed or removed.--[[User:Mitrebox|mitrebox]] 16:26, 26 July 2005 (UTC) |
|||
+Done I pinned one to the top (with a br tag underit so that the mission infobox still floated left) and one on the 26th. I left the previous news links on the days they occured --[[User:Mitrebox|mitrebox]] 16:35, 26 July 2005 (UTC) |

:[[User:Tomf688|'''Tomf688''']]: nice work on combining the wikinews links, it looks ''much'' better like this! – [[User:QuantumEleven|QuantumEleven ]] | [[User_talk:QuantumEleven|(talk)]] 17:30, July 26, 2005 (UTC) |
|||
::Thank [[User:Uncle G]] for coming up with that template; makes combining wikinews links much more attractive indeed. :) --<font size="2" face="garamond" color="#3979BF">[[user:tomf688|tomf688]]</font><sup><[[User talk:Tomf688|TALK]]></sup> 19:01, July 26, 2005 (UTC) |

== Watch reverts on busy pages == |
|||
If you have to revert on a page that is an unfolding event, then be sure to check to see if people made edits just before you revert (ie check the history immediately after you revert). Changlc reverted a couple paragraphs I had written regarding anomalies. |
|||
:I reverted one back due to an added paragraph by an anon user that seemed rather redundant and borderline vandalism, sorry if it accidentally caught some of your stuff.-[[User:Changlc|Loren]] 22:02, 26 July 2005 (UTC) |
|||
:The section in question: |
|||
::''Although the mission launch has been a full success uptil now, the landing of the craft is the far more dangerous and risky part of the mission goals to be accomplished - and this is still to come. The landing procedures will take place in approximately twelve days from now on. Only if the shuttle hits the ground - this way or the other - only then, the mission can be called a success. In the other case an unrivaled disaster.'' |
|||
::: No problem! I've reverted other people's stuff by accident too. :) I agree that piece of prose wasn't appropriate (a little too "riscy", if you ask me). --[[User:Dan East|Dan East]] 00:27, July 27, 2005 (UTC) |
