LAUNCH ADVISORY:  STS-33 DISCOVERY MISSION LAUNCH DATE SET
 
 
     At the conclusion of today's STS-33 Flight Readiness Review
at NASA's Kennedy Space Center, Fla., Space Shuttle managers have
targeted a date of no earlier than Nov. 20, 1989 for the launch
of a dedicated Department of Defense mission aboard the orbiter
Discovery.
 
     The 4-hour launch period will begin at 6:30 p.m. EST.  At
the present time, no major issues are being worked which might
preclude launch on the 20th.
