Astronauts Call Repairs Successful: "We're Back, Baby"...
The space shuttle Discovery astronauts said on Tuesday they had met the key goals of their mission and put NASA on the road to recovery from the 2003 Columbia disaster.
Their comments in press interviews from the shuttle came a day after a spacewalk that the U.S. space agency hailed as a big step toward resuming assembly of the half-built $100 billion
International Space Station. A third and final spacewalk is planned for Wednesday.
