The lead paragraphs seems to have too much emphasis on the launch delays (undue weight) -- one paragraph on mission objectives and three paragraphs on launch delays seems problematic. The lead should be a summary of the article rather than blow-by-blow description of a single type of event, IMO.
The launch delays are also already covered in sufficient detail elsewhere in the article, so I would like to propose a rewrite of the article lead to significantly condense the launch delays to perhaps a sentence or two. Any issues with that? I'd be happy to take a stab at it. Comments welcome.
Also, I don't feel the foam hit is sufficiently notable enough to warrant inclusion in the lead as it occurs on every launch, though certainly has a place in a launch section. So I'm also proposing the foam hit in the lead be deleted since it's already covered in the FD1/launch section and isn't particularly notable enough to stand out as needing a place in the lead.

The table in the "Launch Attempts" section is all messed up (and has been since 18 May 2011). I don't know enough about editing to fix it. Can somebody help?Bob305 (talk) 03:12, 15 July 2011 (UTC)
