dear maheshwari,,
welcome to the board. I saw your profile now, i learnt we both are born on the same date and month, i felt happy knowing that. One more sister i got today. I thank GOD for that.
If i tell u, the lagna is the most essential thing for prediction, lagna is considered first house, without knowing lagna one cannot predict to anybody , and star too has value , the rasi is important for knowing the Gochara that means, predictions on planets transit, is taken only by rasi only, so they both have vital roles , do u understand now? Try to buy basic book KUtumbha jothidam and read .
with love,
prasanna

CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. - A metal clip broke off Discovery's rudder and only four hours passed before the seven space shuttle astronauts got the good news: The missing part poses no danger for Saturday's re-entry and landing.

Ever since the Columbia tragedy five years ago, any shuttle part seen floating away in orbit gets NASA's attention — fast.
Mission Control reassured commander Mark Kelly and his crew on Friday that their spaceship was safe for coming home, and that the missing clip would not jeopardize anything. Good weather is expected for Saturday's landing in Florida.
A protrusion in the same area at the tail, reported by the astronauts around the same time, also was found to be harmless. The rudder's position made the so-called bump look strange when, in fact, that piece of thermal barrier was exactly how it looked at liftoff, Mission Control said.
During a pair of broadcast interviews on Friday the 13th, Kelly acknowledged that he and his crew were worried at first. The clip broke loose during a routine check of the flight systems needed for Saturday's descent.
Kelly said he was impressed at how quickly engineers were able to resolve the issues, and noted that the zoom-in photos of the fleeing clip, taken by one of his crewman, helped in the analysis.
LeRoy Cain, chairman of the mission management team, said without those pictures, it would have taken engineers longer to identify the lost piece and possibly could have delayed landing.
Space shuttles have returned to Earth in the past with clips missing from the rudder, which opens like a book to serve as a speed brake. The V-shaped spring tabs, just 2 1/2 inches by 1 inch, protect that area from the intense heat of liftoff by providing a seamless barrier down the back edge of the rudder, or tail, panels.
Engineers suspect this clip, or tab, came loose during the vibrations of launch on May 31, and it wasn't until the speed brake panels were opened for checkout Friday, that it floated away.
Following Columbia's destruction during re-entry in 2003, the Air Force went back through its radar images from the flight and found a small object in orbit with the space shuttle. Accident investigators concluded it almost certainly was a fragment of a heat panel from Columbia's gashed wing.
Flight director Richard Jones said his team "reacted with a very calm, levelheaded approach."
"We knew that we had to methodically work every single piece of data that we could get. After we had that in hand, it became clearer and clearer that we did not have an issue," Jones said.
Astronaut Garrett Reisman, meanwhile, returning after three months aboard the international space station, said he is "cautiously optimistic" that his adjustment to gravity won't be as bad as some have experienced, and that he may not suffer as many balance problems because he's short.
"My sensory organs are a little closer to my center of gravity, and my heart has a little less distance to pump to my brain," he said. "I've been waiting my whole life, and I think finally this being short is going to come in handy for once."
Reisman said he is looking forward to sleeping in his own bed and using his own toilet. He said in an earlier interview that his last month at the space station was difficult because of a broken toilet and preparations for Discovery's arrival.
The toilet was fixed after Discovery delivered a new pump along with the prime payload, a billion-dollar Japanese lab.
Reisman woke up on his 94th day in space to a song requested by his wife, Simone Francis, and beamed up by Mission Control: "Baby Won't You Please Come Home" by Louis Prima and Keely Smith.
"A special good morning to Simone, my favorite earthling," Reisman called down. "Get ready doll face, Discovery is coming home."

Similar situation happened before colambia landing
On the landing time, I notice the Jupiter has a role to play. Jupiter did cast an aspect on lagnadipathi on Feb 1,2003. Mars being lagnadihpathi was seen to placed in its own house scorpio then. Saturn was seen casting the jupiter by third house asepect. While tomorrow, Jupiter will be casting an aspect on Saturn and Venus . Jupiter Venus will be in a position of Samasapthama. This position I am of the view would trigger a big electrical and mechanical fault , which could worry the landing. Will the landing going to be smooth?

Yet another similarity which I notice between colombia decent and Discovery decent is as under
a) Columbia decent : Rahu (exaltated) along with Saturn in Taurus and Mars, Ketu and lagna in Scorpio, Jupiter in retrogression in Cancer
b) Discovery decent tomorrow: Rahu in Capricorn and Mars, ketu and Lagna in Cancer and jupiter in retrogression in Sagittarius
