At approximately 81-82 seconds after T-0 and liftoff of Space Shuttle Columbia, debris originating from the area near the external tank -Y bipod strut attachpoint is observed striking the underside of the LH wing of the orbiter. The impact site appears to be near the leading edge of the wing. Damage assessment is difficult due to poor resolution and analysis is continuing on this event.
