NASA today canceled the planned 3.5 hour space walk because of
a faulty fan that should circulate oxygen through one of the
two space suits.  Officials suspect a water buildup to be the
problem but could not remedy it despite troubleshooting efforts.
The astronauts made plans to come home tomorrow, on schedule,
landing at 0933 EST at EAFB.  NASA is calling the mission a
100% success despite the spacewalk letdown.
