(Sorry this is a bit late)

The Columbia touched down to yet another picture perfect landing
today half a minute early, at 0633 EST.  Weather conditions were
less than ideal, with a heavy cloud cover, but Vance Brand put
the Columbia down right on the center line on runway 22 at EAFB.

NASA plans to ferry Columbia back to KSC next week, and then it
will face a 10 month overhaul, providing space for Spacelab and
taking out some of the bulky test flight equipment.  Also next
week, Challenger is scheduled to move to the VAB.

NASA has rescheduled STS-5's canceled space walk until STS-6 or
STS-7, aboard the Challenger.
