are you watching?
I’m lucky. All I have to do to see the launch is step outside and look east.
No i have the luck i look 5 miles to the north east
wahoo! all i have to do is turn the channel. which i did. sweet!
when it expect to launch?
9:35
thanks!
I’m excited, the only other launch i have seen was a long time ago and i don’t remember much since i was small child back then.
That’s EST but there’s something about a front moving through and cloud cover.
i hear that, we have direct tv here on campus too so i am watching the NASA channel. back home we have cable so im also excited to watch some regionals and such in march!
“scrub” launch attempt.
so im guessing it will not launch tonight, bummer.
They aren’t launching tonight because of thick cloud ceiling. . . Unsure when next attempt is going to be
I’m sad. I actually got to pull it up, just to hear, “its scrubbed”. But, there will be a next time.
I’m disappointed, unless they delay it until Jan. i will not be able to watch it.
Yup, it’s one of those disappointment moments, but at the same time knowing the correct decision was made. I always feel badly for the NASA folks, even though they are trained for this.
Rescheduled to:
Saturday 1547 ZULU
Friday is a 90% no-go due to cross-winds and showers
Over and Out.
lol :o
Yeah, doesn’t look good for tomorrow. That darn weather you know?
Well, this may cheer you all up, knowing that the astronauts will be eating like kings (and maybe queens… :o don’t really know who the astronauts are…) while away from home!
Wouldn’t it be interesting if the shuttle had been delayed to January 06 at 10:15 AM or so? Mass confusion on NASA TV…at least for FIRSTers.
Several years ago I was on vacation in Orlando, FL. I got to see a night time launch of the shuttle. It was a tough decision as DeForest Kelly (Dr. ‘Bones’ McCoy, Star Trek) was in St. Petersburg the same day. I’ve seen DeForest before so I went to see the shuttle.
It was fantastic. I have the whole launch on video. You can even see the solid fuel rockets peel off from the main tank.
WE HAVE LIFT-OFF! I just watched the amazing coverage on the Yahoo/NASA feed. They are now just over 10 minutes into their mission.
