Post-flight deservicing of orbiter Discovery continues to go well. Workers have completed helium venting on the forward reaction control system. Discovery's main engine heat shields are being removed today and the forward reaction control system will be pulled from the orbiter's nose later this week.
Orbiter Discovery is scheduled to begin a thorough structural inspection and modification period after STS-105 post-flight work concludes. Shuttle managers continue to assess the content and schedule of this planned work period. |
