In August $2007,$ the space shuttle Endeavor suffered minor damage to the heat shield tiles during liftoff. After the Columbia burned up on reentry in $2003$ due to damaged tiles, NASA developed a protocol for repairing damaged tiles while in orbit. After much consideration, NASA decided not to attempt to repair the tiles on Endeavor while in orbit on this mission.

Find a minimum of three different references discussing this incident and NASA's decision. Summarize the reasons both for and against repairing the tile while in orbit. If you had been on the team making this decision, would you have argued for or against the repair and why?
