Since the pdf link on NASA.gov for the TV schedue is still for 119's
, what time is wake-up, and can someone post the correct schedule?
Empty your cache - sounds like you are having browser issues. They just released Rev A of the schedule earlier this evening.

During the late afternoon the "Rev A" Shuttle TV schedule was one of the schedules from STS-119. The current "Rev A" is for STS-125.

FWIW, it was out there around 4:15 pm Eastern; I never bother with the browser for stuff like this, WGET is less of a hassle. Server response:

They use some funky javascript include to update the rev that your browser requests. How do you deal with that with wget? Do you just manually ask for the next rev when you hear it's out? Or do you request the JS file and process that?
I wish they'd just use a pointer, a single URL that gives us the latest

Even something as simple as an http-redirect or something like that.
STS-125 Flight Day 1 highlights on now:
I have kinda a noob question about Hubble I noticed on NASA's site they are doing some board level repairs on the telescope.
Since they are opening an avionics box and replacing some boards does that box require repressurization with nitrogen or does everything use heat pipes and a cold plate for cooling?
I think Ron is trying to build himself a space shuttle.

NASA and US spacecraft seldom use pressurized avionics. Also there are other ways to transfer heat than heat pipes and a cold plates (cold plates are rarely used). The box could its own radiator or could have an exposed surface with thermal control properties.
