    Not a scrub yet, seen this on many launches. Sometimes we had 90% no go for launch but things improved and we had a launch. Lots of time left yet:)

    Great HD live video on http://www.spacevidcast.com/ but the two hosting the show are a pain in the h**e. I have this video feed on but muted and taking the audio from http://www.nasa.gov/multimedia/nasatv/ with the Mission audio link. Seems to work fine.:)

    pain in the hol* is an understatement,Have stuck with coverage all night,
    Spacevidcast presenters think its fine to gibber away whilst NASA are giving updates,

    Spaceflight now half the time showing their own video instead of NASA TV.
    CRETINS!

    excuse me,its been a long night:)

    NASA TV is always my choice but it broke up a lot overnight.

    Lord Lucan,that's some breakfast!has it put you on hold?:)

    Despite my earlier optimism about the weather it does appear to be getting worse over there so it may not happen today:mad: However it does mean we get another countdown. I love the whole flow of the countdown and never get tired watching and listening to them. The more the merrier at this stage:)
    launch tomorrow would be at 09:14 and 08:51 Tuesday.

    But lets just wait and see.

    I just feel sorry for the crew,strapped in there for hours and going nowhere while sitting on the flat of their backs.
