I'll be watching!
I hope that T-storm clears up soon.

Scrubbed due to a faulty fuel quantity sensor. Bummer!

According to the NASA website: NASA is targeting Tuesday, July 26 as the earliest possible date to launch the Space Shuttle Discovery on the Return to Flight mission (STS-114). The determination was made during Monday's meeting of the Mission Management Team (MMT) at Kennedy. Engineers are working through a troubleshooting plan to address an issue with a liquid hydrogen low-level fuel sensor circuit. The sensor circuit failed a routine pre-launch check during the countdown July 13, delaying Discovery's first launch attempt. |

Watched it. Went off without a hitch.
How is it that after 25 years of shuttle missions, watching a launch still gets me all choked up?

Well, they're back. There certainly was enough excitement to go around in this mission. The future of the Space Shuttle is looking a little murky, at least in the short term. I know they're designing a spacecraft to replace it after 2010; does anybody know the particulars? Frankly, the stuff going on in the private sector is a heck of a lot more interesting right now, if not quite as technologically advanced.
