    Pensively, She Sits on the Face of the World

    Stardate 4238.0

    She sits and waits. Like so many times in the decades previous... the sleek rocket sits on the pad, waiting. This time, it's the weather. NASA is now reporting only a 40% chance of a launch today due to the weather.

    They can still launch tomorrow if it improves, but lets hope it is today!

    *** UPDATE ***

    The seven astronauts have now arrived and are boarding the Discovery. The big problem with the weather persists, and there is only a 5 minute window for launching due to the position of the Space Station that the Discovery will be re-supplying.

    I'll keep you posted.... :D
