mist and work
In order to provide maximum protection from a toxic plume
of hydrochloric acid and aluminum oxide from the SRB exhaust,
NASA is moving seating for dignitaries, celebrities, etc.
back 1/2 from the April spot to 4 miles from pad 39A.  They
are also selling mist covers to people who park their cars
closer.

Monitors have also been set up to measure the reaction with
the environment.

Meanwhile, the shuttle has passed a test for leaks in the
steering systems.  Oxygen and hydrogen were also loaded
into its fuel cells.  Tomorrow, the 5 computer systems
on board will be checked.
