Weather threatens to delay launching of space shuttle

CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. — Technicians worked through a launch-threatening cold wave last night to repair the ice-damaged pad of the space shuttle Discovery in time (or blastoff on a secret military mission.

"I can never remember the day before a launch being this cold," said chief astronaut John Young. Forecasters had predicted the temperature would drop into the high 20s last night.
Officials from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration and the Air Force met late yesterday to review procedures in case the launch had to be delayed. A final "go" was not expected until early today, just before the start of fueling
problems — ice-damaged water systems at the launch pad and the potential for dangerous ice buildups on the shuttle's external tank when it is loaded with 500,000 gallons of supercold fuel.
DISCOVERY IS TO blast off between 12:15 p.m. CST and 3:15 p.m. CST for what defense sources said was a mission to launch an Air Force spy satellite. The exact launch time is classified, part of the unprecedented security for the 15th shuttle mission.
Cases of antifreeze were taken to the launch pad to keep water lines open during the night.
Discovery will be manned by commander Navy Capt. Thomas Mattingly, Air Force Lt. Col. Loren Harvie, Naval Air Command and Air Force MAs. Ellison Onizuka and Gary Payton, the first of 25 Defense department shuttle filers.
