Space shuttle Discovery is now scheduled to launch on February 24. The last mission of Discovery has been delayed several times, both for weather-related reasons and for technological problems.
Most of those technological problems have involved certain ribs in the shuttle's external tank. Instead of swapping tanks, NASA has opted to repair this one, which was already mated to Discovery when the problem was found. Technicians are working to strengthen the ribs.
