A NASA graphic shows a hydrogen ice crystal formation floating in space which originated from the umbilical well of the shuttle Discovery's external fuel tank in this frame grab July 5, 2006. The graphic was used in a mission management team news briefing presenting findings of the post-launch inspection of the spacecraft. Discovery's crew spent the day using special cameras attached to a 50-foot boom examine the spacecraft for damage from the previous day's launch. [Reuters]
