Eight minutes and thirty seconds (approx.) to main engine cut off. What a ride that must be! I went outside about 45 minutes ago and thought I might see the ISS over central Texas tonight but didn't see it.:-(

You must have a clear view from where you live... I'm lucky to get a decent view of space where I live...

Nope, it's in the morning. I wish it was going to be at night. Night launches are the most fun to watch from my front porch as it lights up the entire sky and is truly beautiful. It's about time they decided to scrap the late afternoon launches as everyone knows it always rains at that time of the day here in Central Florida this time of the year. I'll still have a good view from work tomorrow so I hope it goes up and they have a safe voyage. Godspeed!

One of the most memorable moments of my life was seeing the launch of Endeavor at night when I just happened to be in Orlando.
I will never forget the moment that the entire sky became daytime when it fired up.
God bless our astronauts and watch over them as they continue to push the envelope of human knowledge and courage.

Unless it rains, thunders or they have one of a hundred technical glitches.
Sorry, but I'm ready for the next (hopefully better) generation of space vehicles.
