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

photographs show a puff of black smoke bursting from
the booster near a seal on liftoff and a tongue of flame
spewing from the same area 59 seconds into the flight.
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.
