Thanks for posting this. I saw a special on Discovery the other night, and it's interesting that they intentionally brought aboard young staff members to staff this project. Why? In ten years, most will be in their 40's (which I, for personal reasons, still consider "young" :) )-John

Hey John....the silly clouds delayed it again as you must have heard on the comms! Hope it clears up!

I watched it from my backyard, nice clear skies from where I was (Kissimmee), but low cloud deck at the Cape caused delays from the scheduled 18:07z launch time.
