NASA extends Discovery's mission view story
Monday, August 1, 2005
Robyn Shelton - - Orlando Sentinel
| The crew of the shuttle Discovery is getting an extra day in space.
With future shuttle flights grounded indefinitely, NASA decided Saturday to extend the mission so Discovery's astronauts can spend the additional day transferring surplus supplies such as water, paper, pens and laptop computers to the international space station, which partly relies on the shuttle to keep it stocked.
