Space shuttle to try again
launch set for Thursday
United Press International
CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. —
The National Aeronautics and
Space Administration has decided
to try to re-launch the space shut
tle Columbia Thursday to see if a
used spacecraft works as well as a
new one.
The two hydraulic system en
gines that developed oil pressure
trouble seconds before blastoff
Wednesday will be fixed by drain
ing contaminated gearbox
flushing the system and installing
new filters.
“Getting to a Thursday launch
is a very tight schedule, but one
which the mission management
team feels can be made,” a NASA
announcement said.
The abbreviated countdown is
scheduled to begin at 7 a.m. Tues
day and head for a 6:30 a.m. blas
toff two days later, a delay of eight
days from the first try.
Launch control spokesman
Hugh Harris said the “gunk in
the lubrication oil that clogged
gearbox oil filters in the auxiliary
power units was a compound pro
duced by a chemical reaction be
tween the oil, hydrazine fuel and a
small amount of water normally
found in the oil. The fuel leaked
through two screens into the oil.
The problem developed in two
hydraulic pump engines that had
not been serviced since the Col
umbia’s first flight last April.
Horace Lamberth, chief of fluid
systems at the Kennedy Space
Center, said the problem showed
that the auxiliary power units in
the spaceship would have to be
checked after each flight. Project
officials had hoped to keep such
servicing to a minimum in order to
reduce work time between laun
ches.
The Columbia is designed to
make 100 round-trips to orbit. The
five-day, 83-orbit flight of Astro
nauts Joe Engle and Richard Truly
is considered important because it
will demonstrate whether a
spacecraft can make at least two
flights.
A successful flight would give
the United States a significant
space first and it would enhance
the ship’s credibility as a reusable
space vehicle. No spaceship has
flown in orbit more than once.
