CT-1. CT-2 is down for the time being. This could cause a bit of complication once both Endeavour and Atlantis is on the pads.

NASA Changes 2008 Shuttle Target Launch Dates
HOUSTON, Sept. 5 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- NASA has adjusted the target launch dates for the two remaining space shuttle missions in 2008. Shuttle Atlantis' STS-125 mission to the Hubble Space Telescope is targeted for Oct. 10, while Endeavour's STS-126 supply mission to the International Space Station has moved to Nov. 12.
Shuttle managers made the decision after Atlantis was rolled to the launch pad and the effects of Tropical Storm Hanna were beyond NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida. That allowed managers to more accurately assess the impacts of recent tropical systems on the launch schedule.
Atlantis began rolling from Kennedy's Vehicle Assembly Building to Launch Pad 39A Thursday at 9:19 a.m. EDT. The shuttle arrived at the pad at approximately 2 p.m. and was secured at 3:52 p.m. Atlantis now is targeted to launch at approximately 12:33 a.m. EDT, Friday, Oct. 10. NASA Television coverage of launch will begin at 7:30 p.m. EDT on Thursday, Oct. 9. The 11-day flight will include five spacewalks to repair and upgrade the Hubble telescope. Atlantis is scheduled to land at approximately 10:21 p.m., Oct. 20.

Nothing too interesting in the 9am briefing... Basically a high level overview in less than 10 minutes, then Seth setting them up with a 3-4 minute question about how bad times are now in NASA with the Griffin memo, Ares problems, and blah blah blah. Ed Weiller turned it around wonderfully by pointing out how much more we do with space science now than when he started...

Interesting note from Mr Shannon about MMOD not being a STS-400 factor - would be repair in such an event:
http://www.nasaspaceflight.com/content/?cid=5507MMOD at late inspections and 400 may not be able to help and would have to be a repair - unless they can find a way to extend power lifetime on the damaged Atlantis.
STS-400 is for a Columbia style damage event.

Shannon is officially classing MMOD damage as the #1 risk to the SSP nowadays, followed by SSMEs and SRBs. Interesting...

Funny about some reporters asking about if NASA will release the 2015 study, and Shannon thinks they won't. It's been on L2 since last week

Well, that's not the study, it's getting ready to do the study...and he laughed and said something to the effect that a lot of internal things are going public these days.

He was talking about the completed study, which isn't done yet. We have the assessment presentation which outlines the study approach, that started last week (which he mentioned).

Not trying to turn this into a weather thread, but with Ike looking to be going for JSC, I was wondering how it would or would not affect the 125 training schedule, and possibly 400-LON

Until (if?) it impacts the area - it is IMPOSSIBLE to guess. You're asking for a 7 day forecast on it hitting JSC, then a 10 day forecast on how long it lasts
Not even worth wasting the pixel energy on your screen to hazard an outlook.
