Ok...I'm confused.  An article posted to this newsgroup some time ago stated
the maiden flight of the Discovery scheduled for 4 June 1984 had been canceled
due to the DOD pulling their payload.  A more recent article said the flight
has been delayed due to the removal of Discovery's APUs for use on one
of the other orbiters. An article in the March Sky & Telescope shows
the Discovery still scheduled for 4 June and no DOD payload.
   Could someone in the know please set me straight on the latest
launch/payload schedule?
