The Challenger was today rolled to launch pad 39A in preparations
for STS-6, now set to launch on 24 January, 1983.  The six hour
rollout, which began at 0419 EST, was completed without a hitch.
The next major task in the pre-launch preparations will be a
20-second test firing of the Challenger's main engines, now
set for 20 December.
