Hi, This is on-topic. From: http://www.spaceflightnow.com/shuttle/sts107/030208object/ "A military radar system shows indications that an object might have separated from the shuttle Columbia in orbit, prompting a review of telemetry by NASA flight controllers to look for signs of anything - including impact by high-velocity space debris - that might have contributed to the shuttle's breakup Feb. 1 during re- entry." "NASA sources said the radar data apparently shows a small object suddenly separating from the shuttle at about five meters per second, or roughly 11.2 mph, on Jan. 17, about 24 hours after Columbia's launch from the Kennedy Space Center." Any elsets of debris parts left in Columbia's original orbit? CU!
