I was at the repair shop getting my car worked on, and I saw the launch live on the morning news. Godspeed and best of luck to the crew!
I never even think to check ABC, CBS, or NBC anymore. Did any of them show it during their morning news shows? In the past they usually wouldn't even bother, which really annoyed me. I hope they will carry the launch and landing of 135.

Probably a combination of timing (as you'll see in the article linked below) and the Giffords storyline making it a human-interest story for the morning show audience:http://www.mediabistro.com/tvnewser/endeavour-lifts-off-for-the-last-time_b66645

What time is docking tomorrow - East Coast time?I would not want to miss it!
Anyone know if the cable networks (and even NASA TV) are on some kind of delay? I read that liftoff occurred as planned at 8:56:28. But my watch (which is accurate within a few seconds) showed it closer to 8:56:45. I know I am being nitpicky. But this has me very curious. It just seems a little odd also to be watching an event I know has already taken place 10 or 15 seconds ago.
