Jessica Rye Quotations

Over the years we have had to replace shoes (treads on the rolling tracks) and we added two driver cabs. We also recently added an exhaust system to reduce the decibel level because we needed extreme hearing protection for workers around the crawler.

While they were doing that, they dropped some equipment off the tray. What they dropped was a film processor, it struck the left hand side of the body flap. There was some tile damage on the body flap, which they're addressing. They're looking, of course, at structural inspections to evaluate if there is any structural damage to the body flap.

We don't think this is going to be any impact or concern at this point.

From a processing standpoint, it would make sense that if Atlantis was ready to go into (its maintenance period) in 2008 and then be unavailable for a year or two, to not bring it back into service just for one or two flights.
