LAUNCH OF DISCOVERY MAY BE MOVED UP

Discovery's launch next week with the Hubble Space Telescope may be moved up a day if a new power unit tests well and the change doesn't hamper preparations for the next shuttle mission, NASA said Tuesday.

The second attempt to launch Discovery is scheduled for April 25, 15 days after the first attempt was scrubbed.
