Anyone know when the next Beta cutout kicks in?
(The) Beta Angle Cutout calculations in early November will have to be reassessed for the new mission duration.“MO organization needs to ‘tune’ the beta cutout date in November 2010 to the 133 planned duration,” notes the presentation.The current Beta cutout begins on November 7 but is based on the STS-134 12-day mission plan.

Beta Angle begins on November 8 and ends on November 23. Next Beta Angle is January 1 through February 1.

Well it's that time again: NASA Announces Tweetup for STS 133 (and I'm sure a JSC tweetup announcement will follow this one at some point... it usually does)http://www.nasa.gov/connect/tweetup/tweetup_10-31-2010.htmlOn the plus side, for those that can stand Twitter and will try and sign up, registration is from noon August 24th to noon August 25th which is early enough for those selected to know they don't have to buy KVC tickets! (wouldn't that be a nice thought!)
