At about 11:20 a.m. EDT, Capcom Terry Virts told Discovery's Commander Mark Kelly that there are no concerns for re-entry and landing Saturday.
Analysis has shown the "bump" on the rudder-speed brake is normal. Mission Control compared today's images to preflight pictures of the area and they are normal.
The object that floated away is a clip that is used to protect the speed brake from heating during ascent. Its loss is no concern for re-entry.
