Search for Shuttle Pieces

Foot search continues in Albuquerque, New Mexico today for a desk sized pice of shuttle that was tracked by radar as it fell into the Sandia Mountains East of Albuquerque. USAF helicopter search of the area on Thurs yielded nothing, but the search was instigated after a local woman found a confirmed piece of the shuttle on Thurs morning.

Albuquerque is some distance away from the main crash area in Texas, and the shuttle was viewed as it passed overhead to be reasonably intact (ie no distinct trails in the sky).
