OK - they get to stay up another 14 minutes. Then it is out of my hand because the school nurse has stepped in with an order based on health.

At least I don’t have to be the bad guy.

She heard noises. Came in. Asked why they were all still up. They pointed at me. Traitors.

At least the boys got to hear the go/no go calls - I always found that exciting as a kid.

Oh, no we aren’t!

Another hold due to some drain valve.

*sigh*

Now I know how my dog feels when he thinks he’s going for a ride and I screw around getting to the car.

“We have one hour and fifty five minutes remaining in our launch window...”

Mass cry from my students “We don’t!”.

I’ve told them there’s nothing I can do. I’d have more chance of convincing NASA to launch than I would of convincing the nurse to change her time.

I guess the rocket will launch when the stars are aligned in the right position!

The Delta 4 launch team is cycling the rocket’s fill and drain valves in hopes of resolving the problem.

Your home page is a mighty fine tribute to too many brave heroes. Please give your students greetings from Florida’s Space Coast.

I shall. I am now off to bed myself. Nobody makes me except myself but I need to be conscious tomorrow to teach.
