The crew of the shuttle Discovery today successfully recovered
the Spartan-1 satellite and stowed it back in the payload bay
for return to Earth.  A grappling pin on the satellite was
slightly out of position, and the RMS had to be extended to
its 50 foot limit twice in order to grab the satellite.

Landing is set for 0914 EDT Monday at Rogers Dry Lake, EAFB.
