Nasa detects space shuttle damage
Nasa says it detected a gouge in shuttle Endeavour's heatshield during a routine inspection as it docked with the International Space Station (ISS).
A robot arm will be used on Sunday to inspect the 3in (7.6cm) square, spotted as the shuttle performed a backflip so images of its underside could be taken.
Nasa said ice may have struck the shuttle shortly after Wednesday's lift-off from Cape Canaveral, Florida.
If deemed dangerous, astronauts may have to repair it during a spacewalk.
Mission manager John Shannon said: "What this means, I don't know at this point."
On Sunday, the astronauts will use a robot arm and extension boom, tipped with a laser and camera, to determine the exact size and depth of the gouge, he said.

See first post for Live TV Links
A man joined a very exclusive nudist colony. On his first day he took off his clothes and started to wander around the area.
A gorgeous petite blonde walked by, and the man immediately got an erection. The woman noticed his erection, came over to him and asked, 'did you call for me?'
The man replied, 'No, what do you mean?'
She said, 'You must be new here. Let me explain..
It's a rule here that if you get an erection, it implies you called for me.' Smiling, she led him to the side of the swimming pool, laid down on a towel eagerly pulled him to her and happily let him have his way with her.
Later, the man continued to explore the colony's facilities. He entered the sauna and as he sat down, he farted.
Within seconds a huge, hairy man lumbered out of the steam room toward him. 'Did you call for me? ' asked the hairy man....
'No, what do you mean?' replied the newcomer.
'You must be new.' answered the hairy man,
'It's a rule that if you fart, it implies that you called for me.’ The huge man easily spun him around, put him over a bench and had his way with the newcomer.
The newcomer stagg ered back to the colony office where he was greeted by a smiling, naked receptionist, 'May I help you?' she asked.
'Here's my membership card. You can have the key back and you can keep the $500 membership fee.'
'But, Sir,' she replied, 'you've only been here a few hours. You haven't had a chance to see all our facilities.'
'Listen lady, I'm 68 years old. I only get an erection once a month, but I fart 15 times a day.
I'm outta here.
