Hello friends,
We have just been notified that there will be no launch attempt tonight. Next attempt is Sunday, July 12th at 7:13 p.m.
The reason for the scrub is that the orbiter was hit by lightning yesterday afternoon and the technical teams did not have time to perform all the re-testing necessary to clear the vehicle for launch.
If necessary, we will have three attempts in a row: July 12, 13 and 14.
The good news is that weather is improving for a launch attempt on Sunday...
Hope some of you can stay!
Julie
