Hail Damage causes delay of STS-117 launch
Hail Damage onexternal fuel tank
Houston Chronicle
CAPE CANAVERAL, FL
Golf ball-size hail that pelted space shuttle Atlantis earlier this week, dimpling its fuel tank, did enough damage that NASA has decided to cancel its March launch plans and send the shuttle back inside for repairs.
The launch, planned for March 15, was pushed back to at least late April.
