Delayed due to clouds moving in. Wil try tomorrow morning at 4:14.
I stayed up to watch it. They made the call to scrub at 4:30am. The launch manager folks said they had never seen clouds like this before. Forecast went downhill from 80% favorable a few hours before launch to 60% and then 30% about an hour before.
Disappointing, but I watched a few hours of the preparation on NASA TV's live feed which I had never seen before and was pretty neat.
i was looking forward to it today, had to be up that early anyway. now i have to get up early tommorow too... =(
Be advised this is the last scheduled night time launch.
They launched successfully and dang nabit I forgot to set up my DVR. Too much Super party yesterday.
