shuttle work
Right on schedule, workers today began to mate the external tank
for STS-3 with its two SRB's.  The process should be completed
tomorrow.  Also, 408 tiles have been removed from the shuttle.
These were damaged during reentry of STS-2.  Around 211 have
already been rebonded, and when the last are done, the orbiter
will be moved to the Vehicular Assembly Building, sometime in
February.
