Hunt for shuttle debris persists
The Associated Press
CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. — Almost every month, Kennedy Space Center gets a call from people who think they may have found a piece of the Challenger Space Shuttle. Six years after the nation's worst space disaster, the searching and sorting of debris continues.
Most of what is sorted is ocean junk — chunks of unmanned rockets or other flotsam and jetsam. But occasionally, the real thing turns up. Early last year, fishers found a small tank and a metal fragment a few feet long in the Atlantic Ocean off Cape Canaveral.
The articles are locked in a holding area, awaiting burial in the abandoned missile silos that hold a quarter-million pounds of Challenger remains.
The two 90-feet deep silos have been opened only three times since the bulk of the shuttle was buried in 1987. Ten-ton concrete caps cover the silos, which are surrounded by a chain-link fence at the Cape Canaveral Air Force Station.
"I think it's about over. I don't think we're going to see much more," said Elliott Kicklighter, a National Aeronautics and Space Administration official in charge of the crypt. "It hasn't been a very busy job, thank goodness."
Only hardware is contained in the silos; all 5,000 pieces are cataloged. The remains of the seven astronauts killed in the explosion and their personal effects have long since been turned over to the fami-
For the first few years after the accident, Kennedy security officers tracked down reports of illegally
held debris, considered government property. No charges were filed, although some people surrendered the items with reluctance, said Calvin Burh, the space center's chief of security.
Now, most of the detectives' time is spent checking objects found by fishers and beachcombers.
Just a few weeks ago, officers received several chunks of lightweight aluminum, a spring coil and piece of hard, black plastic in the shape of a half-moon found on a beach 30 miles south of the space center. The discoverers thought maybe — just maybe—the articles came from Challenger.
"It had nothing to do with the shuttle program at all." Burch said.
Burch said he was not surprised by the public's lingering preoccupation with Challenger.
MU freshman killed in fall from elevator
The Associated Press
COLUMBIA, Mo. — A University of Missouri freshman died in a fall down an elevator shaft in a campus dormitory after the elevator stopped between floors and the student tried to jump out, authorities said.
University representative Mary Still identified the student as Colin Prock, 19. She said that his home town was not immediately known.
but that he had relatives in Kansas City and Rolla. Mo.
Witnesses told The Columbia Tribune that the elevator stopped about 11 p.m. on Friday between the third and fourth floors of a building, at 13 or 14 people cramped into the car.
Prock "opened the door and crawled out into the shaft," one witness told police. "Then someone opened the outside door and everyone looked up. No one saw him fall. Then we heard the thump."
