SCRUB: STS-134 - LAUNCH DAY UPDATES - April 29, 2011

LIVE interactive coverage for Endeavour's STS-134 countdown.
This is interactive, but will remain focused on updates. Use the other threads.
List:
http://forum.nasaspaceflight.com/index.php?board=4.0
- for items such as viewing the launch, weather and cheerleading posts.
The site will get very busy as we get closer to launch, so please appreciate the thread needs to run on updates, not random posts, and non compliant posts will be deleted by moderators without notice.
We broke the record during STS-133, and for a period it was absolutely crazy visitation numbers (500+ page impressions a second). Our servers - thanks to L2 members - are excellent, but we will protect the site in the event of overloading. In such a scenario, logged in members will be priority access, not guests.
http://forum.nasaspaceflight.com/index.php?topic=24313.0
Be very careful with posting non-official Twitter updates in here as it's now NASA and USA policy that those involved are not to use Twitter during events, so exposing such people will risk them getting into trouble and I don't want this site to ever be responsible for that, even indirectly.

Coverage will be centralized on this site, via these live threads and news articles, but I will ''tweet" important updates via

L2 Members should also refer to the L2 STS-134 Special which is transitioning from PRCB/FRR to MMT/MER level coverage, which will once again drive the upcoming articles on site given the exclusive and live nature of the L2 mission coverage.

Should a scrub be called , this thread will continue until the attempt 2 thread goes live ahead of the next tanking opportunity.
Should Endeavour launch, this thread will continue as Flight Day 1 updates, with new threads for each of the upcoming Flight Days.
**THIS IS A ROYAL WEDDING FREE ZONE**
Godspeed Princess Endeavour!

Teams were essentially back on the timeline this morning after weather moved in and delayed the RSS to the park position by about 5 hours.
Testament to the teams.

Some people getting a really early start at the press site.
No issues in work as of right now. LH2 slowfill started at 6:32am EST. MPS chilldown began shortly after.

Per L2's coverage, there's a problem with the pressure in the Right OMS fuel tank.
LCC violation. Waiting for more.

Also, they will be monitoring performance during and after Fuel Cell start due to an IPR. Constraint resume count at T-9, but the report reads like they will clear it unless something striking is seen.
