Abort due to failure to abort, heh. <- my quip, it sounded like that they couldn't arm the abort system

Abort due to failure to abort, heh.

Commentator: engineers are evaluating telemetry right now. Currently we can go again in second window.

Chris Bergin · « **Reply #98 on:** 12/08/2010 01:07 pm »

No reason for the abort at this time.
