Glenn, hard at work in the Shuttle Discovery..
MISSION CONTROLLER SAYS, "GOOD MORNING DISCOVERY.WELCOME TO A
SECOND DAY IN SPACE." SHUTTLE ANSWERS, "THANKS, HOUSTON, IT'S GOOD TO BE
HERE."
In fact following a wake up call from LOUIS ARMSTRONG's "WHAT A
WONDERFUL WORLD", officials at NASA wasted no time in putting the
Senator to work, enlisting his help in the deployment a small
communications satellite late this afternoon.
Officials also revealed that the panel that fell off Discovery yesterday
during lift off was actually a door covering one of the drag chutes that
helps the shuttle slow down after it lands.
Jeff Bantle/ Mission Operations: NO IMPACT ON ORBIT OR RE-ENTRY. WE SIMPLY WON'T USE THE DRAG CHUTE.
Virtually every day of Discovery's nearly nine-day mission will be
filled with new experiences for Glenn, but today the crew paused to
relive a moment from his past.
As it did during his historic 1962 flight, the city of Perth, Australia
turned on all the lights to honor the world's oldest astronaut.
John Glenn, Payload Specialist
Mother Nature provided her own light show 350 miles above the earth with
a spectacular thunderstorm - as a backdrop to the John Glenn's first
full day in space.
From the moment NASA announced he would be
returning to space, John Glenn has said his greatest concedrn would be
his ability to correctly perform his experiements and assist the crew.
If today's performance is any indicationm, in 8 days the Senator should

The Food and Drug Administration says a margarine manufacturer may be breaking the law.
McNeil Consumer Products planned to market it's Benecol margarine as a dietary supplement that helps people reduce their cholesterol levels.
The F-D-A says that's illegal because the margarine is clearly a food and it has not been approved for sale.
McNeil says as a dietary supplement it does not need approval.
If the company proceeds with it's plan to test market Benecol, the F-D-A says it will yank the margarine from the shelves.
Benecol contains an ingredient made from pine trees which appears to prevent the body from absorbing as much cholesterol as normal.
