ET-118 arriving at Port Canaveral at 8:00am EDT.
Well, since it is 11:18 am EDT, let's see when it shows up in the VAB.
I'll ask about this with the ET mechs at KSC:
From the status reports.
On Monday, workers in the Vehicle Assembly Building inadvertently
bumped ET-118, the STS-115 external fuel tank, with a mobile work
platform, causing an indentation in the foam insulation about 3/8 of
an inch deep. The damage is on the upper part of the tank just left
of the centerline. The area will be fixed and thoroughly analyzed and
inspected. The repair work is not expected to affect the
launch-on-need support for the STS-121 mission or STS-115.
