"The X-rays showed four
additional small cracks on three stringers on the opposite side of
the tank from Discovery, and managers elected to repair those
cracks in a similar fashion to repairs made on cracks discovered
after the Nov. 5 launch attempt. That work is estimated to take
2–3 days. Any further work will be evaluated thoroughly early
next week after additional data is reviewed. The hardware is in
place to perform any modification. That work would be performed
inside the VAB."
