Going to be another of those big PRCBs tomorrow. Here's hoping for the best!

Anyone noticed how this site is again dominating the coverage of STS-122 as per usual. Check this out from spacetoday.net where the news from major space sites are listed. This is for STS-122...

We're covering today's PRCB in L2 and it's all looking like a bunch of good news so far!
No tanking test is being recommended (saves five days or so). Feb 2 looks hopeful.
Lots of presentations to go through, but will do an article for sure.

Thanks for the update.
You don't need to post that every time Chris updates the live status

Feb 2 looking solid as per PRCB.
L2 information pointing to new schedule of THREE launches in the space of about two and a half months :cool:

I guess that kind of flight schedule is a natural consequence of delaying the one flight while the others are still being prepared. Hopefully the gap after the flurry of flights isn't then too prolonged, although I wouldn't be surprised to see a 2-3 month wait.

End of PRCB throws a curveball and notes Feb 7 for STS-122 now. We're checking as to why.

I was told we can not move Progress M-63 launch date from February 7 to the end of January (for allowing NASA to launch STS-122 on February 2) or to the middle of February (after STS-122 landing)... So NASA moves STS-122 launch to February 7 or 8 and we move Progress M-63 launch to February 5... It is the best thing we can do for NASA in this case...

That actually makes a lot of sense. Progress needs to be docked by the time we launch and cannot do rendeavous while the orbiter is there.

Looks like we could be still on schedule for ISS construction by the end of 2008

Certainly seems highly achievable.

Not yet. We'll get word when they have completed confidence testing for installation. Hope is today, but there's no rush so long as it's this week, which should be the case.
