NASA made tentative plans to reinstall the satellite into the
Challenger's cargo bay this Friday, unless lab tests show some
significant damage.  In addition, leak tests on the engines
are being conducted this week, with a major test, that of
pumping helium under high pressure through the engines,
scheduled for the end of the week.  NASA hopes to know by
then whether or not they can launch around 7 April.
