Quotentschke - 7/2/2008 6:43 AM Does anyone know of a link where you can track realtime (or almost realtime) launch telemetry? I found one years back but can't seem to dig anything up. I basically showed downrange, alt, speed, etc, etc. I checked NASA's site but finding stuff there is almost impossible. Thanks in advance if anyone has a link...
Heavens Above is a good site. You have to set up a user name and password. It also has tracking of about anything in the sky. http://www.heavens-above.com/main.aspx?Session=kebgcpadiajldaliapagkclcI've used that site a lot and do have an account there. Their ISS and sat predictions are very accurate. However, what I'm looking for, (and I know I've see it somewhere in the past) is something showing vehicle data during the launch. Thanks anyway...

Sensor R&R video now on NTV, with George Diller commentating.
Would love to be at home now for screenshots. This is a good video!

Anyone know of any ice build up on the ET?

That won't be known until the Final Inspection Team goes to the pad to look for ice and frost build up on the ET and orbiter.

Right now, the test on the ECO system connector is underway. The F.I.T. is now proceeding to the launch pad. - PAO

The crew is having their final medical checks from the flight surgeon. Crew wake was about 4:15 AM EST. Will have a meal before suit-up, about 9:30 AM. Boarding of Atlantis will occur at 11:25, and hatch closure around 12:15 or so.

Lyons: Atmosphere here in the firing room is excitement. We proceeded into tanking right on time. ECO sensors went WET as expected during load process. Commanded sensors to DRY at 6:15 this morning, and stayed. During that period, the connector went through thermal procedure. Went to system competence test on the sensors, and functioned as designed. We have a good ECO system and are ready to fly. Will continue to monitor these ECO sensors throughout this launch, and final test at T-9 minutes. F.I.T. at the pad now, looking for foam cracks/ice, and anything else. Will come back and tell us what they see.
Diller: Criteria during launch?
Lyons: LCC on this system is 3 out of 4 systems working in order to launch. Currently 4/4, expect to be that way through T-0.

Atlantis and its Crew is now 6 hours away from launch!
So far everything running very smoothly - hope the weather cooperates for launch!

Two hours until the countdown clock resumes.

I'd do anything to be here:
EDIT: And with this, I go to class. Back around 2 PM EST or so for some updates, and if we launch, I'll be grabbing shots for that too. GO ATLANTIS!
