I just watched the mission profile video on NASA TV; pretty technical and very complicated electrical engineering schedule for this flight....

If there continues to be only a 30% chance the weather will be GO at launch time, I appreciate that they are delaying the fueling. Why endure the thermal stress of fueling the ET, and risk loosening foam insulation, if there is little chance of flying? Someone is thinking...

IMHO I would have included Bob Villa as a Mission Specialist.

During High School I worked for my next door neighbor who was an electrician. If Bob need a helper I'd go too!
