Do You Think Space Shuttle Discovery will return Safely to Earth?
I am a bit weary of its return seeing as the same thing that caused the demise of Columbia happened to Discovery. They say they may have fixed but how do they know for sure.

Maybe there is another problem out there lurking, I hope not and would definately hate to see the demise of NASA

9. I think that's being a bit generous.
I sure hope I'm wrong, but I really don't have a good feeling about this. I'm pulling for them though. :(

3. I'm not exactly sure why I believe it...
But my gut feeling is that they will safely return...

I hope for it with all my heart and soul...

:scared:

5. Cautiously optimistic
Unless NASA cleaned house in their shuttle programs after Columbia, I can only offer cautious optimism for this return.
