Re: NASA's Return to Flight Mission July 13!
The problem with the LH2 ECO (engine cutoff) sensors appears to be a grounding or EMI (Electromecchanical interference) in the wiring harness.
The attached URL shows several good illustrations of the sensors and their locations. The latest information that I have is that the flight might occur as early a Tuesday. http://www.nasa.gov/images/content/1...CO_sensors.jpg |

Re: NASA's Return to Flight Mission July 13!
I'm going to be making sure I get up in time for the launch (and not accidentally sleep till noon like I did this morning
). From what I understand, they are "Bending the rules" and may fly even if the issue pops up again, but hopefully it wont. |

Well, according to CNN, on the last fuel sensor test, they all worked. Hopefully it stays that way.

Re: NASA's Return to Flight Mission July 13!
What happens to the rockets after they detach? How does NASA make sure they dont land on something that they weren't supposed to land on?
