Then what is the range conflict?
Military Operation
I'd bet on it being the Minotaur launch being held off until the 19th in order not to conflict with Atlantis (the Minotaur launch team was told probable next attempt not occuring untul the 19th)..

No briefing yet, but the Video File did include video of payload bay door closing for flight (link to stills of the same posted in this thread earlier).

You would lose that bet.

Issues with RCS pod studs OMS bolts from Discovery talked today. No issue for flight as all tolerances are within limit.

Barret: Weather still pretty good. High pressure over KSC for the next few days. Winds out of the east in the afternoon could yield some cumulus clouds. Still 80% favorable weather for Monday.

EVA tether issue that delayed PLBD closure last night was a minor thing they'd never seen before. Nothing serious at all.

Endeavour will stay where it's manifested on June 13. It would have stressed the teams too seriously to have considered moving 127 and 125 up a day.
Also, 128 is heading toward launch on August 6 but is contingent upon condition of MLP that Atlantis is sitting on. That MLP will be used for 128. Moses wouldn't be surprised if the 128 NET launch date moved a little.

Would not take much notice of Twitter updates, as it will be a PAO guy. There was a big meeting between USA and NASA payload with Hubble today over a concern, which I believe has been cleared via a plan, but I understand some people prefer a page of flowers and smiley faces for their updates.

Irene asking about the range abilities for this mission.
Moses: Range unavailable from 14th - 19th. Could come back on the 20th, but the number of attempts at the beginning of the window determines when they could come back after the cutout. Could be the 20th or the 22nd.

Intruder aircraft at 2600ft about 5 miles north of the pad and heading south...
Which one? If A, then they got a bit closer to B.
(Sounds like it might be useful to have 60 minutes on Monday.)
