The silence is haunting. Somewhere out in orbit, the space shuttle Discovery circles the earth once every 90 minutes like a ghost ship. Five men on board go about their business, and messages pass between them and Mission Control, but all is in code. Not a sound of life on the Discovery reaches the news center here, not a single televised image. The silence grows stranger with each passing hour of the secret mission, the first ever by American astronauts. It brings back memories of all those past missions when the communications circuits were open and they crackled with the dialogue of brave pursuits.
