B. 9R SIDE: THERE ARE PLUS DENSITY OVALS ALONG THE INBOARD
EDGE OF THE FIRST FEW FRAMES. THESE ARE PROBABLY ASSOCIATED WITH
THE ROLLER CHATTER THAT IS PRESENT THROUGHOUT THE MISSION. EDGE
STATIC IS PRESENT ALONG BOTH EDGES OF THE FILM. A FEW PINHOLES
WERE NOTED THROUGHOUT THE MISSION. THERE IS A HEAT SPLICE IN
FRAME 1:007. A MANUFACTURING SPLICE IS LOCATED IN FRAME 571.
