So, we're into chilldown. Slow fill shortly. Won't be scrubbed before tanking is in stable replenish, bar technical issue.
Milestone may be related to the crew preps, see how the weather looks then. 4:30am local is when they wake up, I think I heard.

History of the booster cases being noted. Chris G has the full history rundown on that here:

Amazing that part of STS-1 is flying on the last mission.

*Expects Lori Garver to run into the Firing Room, grab the mic and insist everything's bloody wonderful (Win The Future - or "WTF"). (Sorry

NTV's remembered they've got more than one camera. She's looking very pretty.

Could someone please post at approx what time (EDT) the crew will head out for the launch pad? I've missed it the last few launches and would really like to see it live this time, for obvious reasons. But I'd also like to go to bed and get some sleep!
Thanks.
PS. She is most certainly an impressive sight, lit up at night.

Thank you so much!
I better get my arse in bed.
And thanks to those posting all the updates. If I can't be there, at least I can be inundated with information and pretty pictures. Will check back in the morning to see what I missed while I slept.
Safe journey, Atlantis. ♥
