Bird crap. The stuff that
binds. But some other birds may have gotten the last laugh. Camera images revealed whitish spots on the reinforced carbon-carbon panels of the shuttle's right wing. Ceccacci said he and space station flight director Rick LaBrode saw the same spots three weeks ago during a tour of the launch pad and that the spots resembled bird droppings from their vantage of about five to 10 feet away.
Maybe they're just taking their revenge for
this.
