Default is starshine project dead or on hold?


I've been trying to find recent updates on the starshine 4 and 5
satellites (for my daughter) and the most recent information I've
found was a launch prediction from the end of 2002. Apparently
Starshine 3 reentered January 2003, so unless 4 and 5 were launched,
there isn't one up there right now. Am I correct? Was the launch of
4 and 5 delayed by the Columbia tragedy?

I think this web site is current:

The first three were launched from Space Shuttles, so I assume
the project has to be on hold until their flights resume, unless
they change the project very significantly.
