Wow.. its time..

Source HDNET
Looks like a pre-hail tank...
It sure is. the large area repair on the aft LOX tank ogive isn't visible even though from that point of view it should be. Not to mention the other smaller repairs.

See if I can get you folks the full video .. there is a zoom in section and it looks like some repairs..
It come from a 20 program shown last night... and its current.. but the footage may be out of sequence..

Weather looks pretty good for zip code 32920 as well.  

Vehicle looks ready to go right now too.  

Fingers crossed the next 36 hours are uneventful followed by a few million pounds of thrust.

Godspeed Atlantis!

A little "how-to" if you want the official "T-" clock on your desktop:

Download the .htm file attached, put it wherever you want on your hard drive, then right click on your desktop -> properties -> desktop -> customize desktop -> web -> new -> browse for the .htm file attached, add it and click "OK". It will appear on your desktop as a resizable, movable web page.

Thanks! By the way - if you're planning on using two or more monitors/projectors, you can edit the size of the flash clock by simply opening the web page in Notepad, and scroll sideways to the

height="180" width="260">

part, simply edit those numbers (in pixels) and you'll get the clock in whatever size you want. Then go to your desktop and customize the window. It looks great on a 15" monitor! (although the resolution is quite poor...)

Here's my background.  It has a crew photo with the active countdown clock.  I sized it for 1024x768...I'm making a 1280x1024 one now.
