and it looks like they might miss the fall 2004 time frame and end up
launching in January 2005.

Considering the history of problems with January launches, does anyone
find this idea discouraging?

The January thing is a coincidence, nothing more.



Challenger was weather-related. Did January weather affect
foam shedding on Columbia's tank?


Not according to the CAIB report.


Nor was the Apollo 1 fire due to January weather. A sad coincidence, nothing
more.
