...first time since that winter day 29 months ago when the shuttle Challenger and its crew of seven disappeared in a sickening cloud of smoke and debris, signs of vitality were evident at Florida's Kennedy Space Center last week. To the cheers of hundreds of workers, the redesigned 85-ton orbiter Discovery was rolled into the 52-story Vehicle Assembly Building to be attached to the two solid-fuel rocket boosters and the external fuel tank. This week plans call for the entire structure to be moved, at a glacial pace, more than four miles to launching...
Other scientists note that global climate moves in broad historical cycles of warming and cooling tens of thousands of years long. Astronomical cycles, volcanoes, the interplay of deserts, oceans, cloud cover, even the methane produced by termites, can affect the density of the atmospheric greenhouse.

According to Transportation Secretary James Burnley, Texas Air is currently "fit, willing and able" to perform safely, but the Government warned that labor-management strife at Eastern poses potential future hazards. As a precaution, Burnley appointed William Brock, a former Secretary of Labor, to act as a liaison between...
