Anniversary or no anniverrsary, launch Discovery only when Crippen
is absolutely sure that there is nothing wrong and the Challenger
tragedy should not as far as it is humanly possible be repeated. If
there were no human lives at stake, go ahead and launch it but since
it is a manned mission all precautions have to be taken.
