It will be a largely unrehearsed operation,with the risk that the astronaut repairman, Stephen Robinson, might accidentally damageDiscovery's fragile thermal shield and make matters worse. The plan calls for Robinson to perform the operation on the endofthe international space station's 58-foot robot arm, which would bend and wrap aroundthe side of Discovery to enable him to reachall the way underneath. Robinson will first try to tug the protruding strips out with his gloved fingers.If that does not work,he will use a hacksaw to cut them off while holding the material taut with forceps. Discovery's other astronauts and Mission Control would see him the whole timevia robot arm cameras, but he would be out ofsight of his spacewalking partner, Soichi Noguchi, who would be busy elsewhere doing other things. NASAdecided twoastronauts would be too many for the worksite and might cause Earlier Monday, Robinson and Noguchistepped outside paewey and replaced a broaoe too much around. Removal of the two gap fillers will not jeopardize the shuttle in any way, Hale said. The risks of the aoe are fairly well understood, and have been alleviated as much as possible, he said. Space shuttles have returned in the past with drooping gap fillers, almost all of them shorter. The trouble is, NASA does not know if the strips started out longer and simply burned off during re-entry, or perhaps fell out altogether. In that sense, the space agency was unwittingly playing Russian roulette with every flight, Hale said. This was the first time the Peed space out a ae machinesize gyroscope that stopped working three years ago, and installed a new one in its place. After twoattempts to hook it up, they got power flowing to he unit. Until Discovery arrived last week, the space station had been flying with only two good gyroscopes, the bare minimum needed to keep thecomplex stable and pointed in the right direction. During the mission’s first spacewalk on Saturday, the spacewalkers rewired a third gyroscope and got it working again, and so Mon- day’s swapleft the station with four functional gyroscopes. ‘a, LOOK WHAT’S NEW TODAY!

With many Londonersfearful of a third roundofattacks on the Underground and bus systems,authorities looked for any solid links betweenthe first two plots, which appeared similar onthe surface. “Thereis a resonance here,” Metropolitan Police Commissioner Ian Blair noted hours after the second round of bombings. It’s likely the twocells — the first made up mostly of Paki- stani Britons and the second of immigrants from East Africa — didn’t know of one another but reported to the same organizer or bomb-making expert, said Alex Standish, editor of Jane's Intelligence Digest. “Thathas to be the assumption (investigators) are working on at the moment,” he said. “Only by uncovering the structure can they hope to discover whetherthere are furthercells operating in the U.K.” “There is absolutely no reason whya third, fourth, fifth cell shouldn't exist,” Standish said. But, he added,interrogation of the captured July 21 suspects is unlikely to lead police to othercells, because terror networksareset upso that those who out separate attacks have no knowledgeof one another. Police have not said whether they think the twosets of bombers werepart of the same network, reporting to a common supervisor.

THE ASSOCIATEDPRESS KHARTOUM, Sudan — Grief-stricken supporters of a former Sudanese rebelleader tore throughthe capital in riots thatleft 36 people dead Monday, smashing cars and shops and angrily blaming the governmentfor their hero's death in a helicopter crash. Despite doubts among the rioters, the southern rebel movementdismissed talk ofa plot against Vice President John Garang and sought to keepalive the fragile north-south peace deal he championed for Sudan.” The 60-year-old Garang, who had been Sudan'sfirst vice presidentfor just three weeks, died Saturday along with 13 other people whentheir helicopter crashed into a mountain in southern Sudan in bad weather. | feel like all m: hopes are now broken,” Ashraf Abaie sinking his head into his hands. Three weeks ago,the 26year-old hotel ree beamed with excitement at the promise he saw in Garang's triumphant return to Khartoum. On Monday,he cried. His Sudan People’s Liberation Movementstressed that the crash was an accident, not foul play, and quickly named Garang’s longtimedeputy, Salva Kiir Mayardit, to succeed him as head of the movement and as president of south Sudan, spokesman Yasser Arman told The Associated Press. Kiir will also likely be first vice president, according to the January peace agreement that says whoever is Sudan People’s Liberation Mcvement leader will hold that position, said Kenyan Gen. Lazaro Sumbei: a mediator in the peace ti On July 9, Garang wasinau- gurated into a national unity governmentthat was seen as the key to bringing ehensive peace to Sudan. He was working with the president and vice president to form a Cabinet by Aug. 9. “Losing theb brother, the doctor,is a hugeloss. Heis atrue peace partner and has ed a big role,” President Omar By Bashir said. Three daysof national mourning have been declared.
