National/Regional Recovery of rocket section could provide vital clue CAPE CANAVERAL. Fla. (AP) — Engineers ex amined photos and the debris retrieved from the ocean floor Monday to determine if a submarine has located parts of the right-hand booster rocket implicated in the explosion of space shuttle Challenger. But NASA spokesman Hugh Harris said it probably would be at least Wednesday before a determination is made on whether components of the booster have been spotted. Recovery of rocket sections could provide a vital clue to what caused the tragedy because NASA launch PROFESSOR RAIMUNDO PANIKKAR Univeristy of California at Santa Barbara Department of Religious Studies Distinguished Visiting Lecturer, 1986 will present a series of lectures on: HUMAN LIBERATION AND TECHNOLOGY Tuesday, February 18: THE COMPLEX MEANING OF HUMAN LIBERATION Room 167 EMI). 7:30 P.M.

Challenger's fuel tank, holding nearly 500.000 gallons of liquid hydrogen and liquid oxygen, explod ed at 73 seconds, eight miles high. All seven crew members were killed. A presidential commission investigating the acci dent has focused on the right-hand booster as one of the leading theories for the explosion. The crew of the four-man research submarine Johnson Sea-Link 2 reported Sunday it had photograph ed objects believed to be sections of the 149-foot rocket 1,200 feet down in the Atlantic about 45 miles nor theast of Capa Canaveral. Officials said the photographs and videoOnas were brought back to the Kennedy Space Center for initial study and then were flown to the Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville. Ala., which oversees NASA’s shuttle engine work. The photos are being compared with pictures of the rocket taken befor the Jan. 28 launch. AuCoin announces he’ll seek House re-election .
