Shuttle Now in OPF
At 1105 EST, Columbia made it through the doors of the Orbiter
Processing Facility, where it will stay about 6 weeks for refurbishment.
The first item on the list is the removal and cleansing of the
OMS pods, and of course, rebonding of tiles.  Then the shuttle will
be moved to the Vehicle Assembly Building where it will be mated
with an external tank and two new SRB's.  Target date for STS-4 is
27 June.
