"what you are seeing here is something we haven't done before where we completely disect all the hardware; look at every nut, bolt, very closely. we're measuring all the installation gaps. measuring parts. verifying holes are still round."
It was a leading edge panel on Columbia's left wing that was breached 81 seconds after liftoff by a piece of foam insulation that broke loose from the shuttle's giant external fuel tank.
On re-entry, super hot gas entered the hole in the wing, causing Columbia to break apart.
"the atlantis engineering team is confident it's work will be done on the vehicle in time for a march 11th. liftoff. But nasa officials say there may not be enough time between now and then to implement all the recommendations of the Columbia accident investigation board.
The board recommended NASA improve the impact resistance of panels and thermal tiles. That will take time. For now, the space agency is concentrating on eliminating the shedding of debris from the external tank that can hit the delicate tiles.
NASA is also working on a method for in-orbit inspection and repair of the tiles. Putting all this in place could push the launch date back weeks.))
