I heard something about new software on TV. I didn't hear but maybe it could have been navigational software. You might want to keep an eye out for that. I also heard an old astronaut describe how control is critical and difficult on re-entry.
Numerous times I've viewed that takeoff incident and IMO it's apparent that whatever fell off evaporated on part of the craft. How much damage could something evaporative do?

ah, yes, that baseball bat really evaporates into a poof when it hits a bag of flower.
