LIVE interactive coverage on Endeavour's launch countdown (final leg of S0007) launch attempt 3.
This is interactive, but needs to be kept on updates. Use the other threads for items such as viewing the launch, weather and general woo hooing cheerleading posts. The site will get very busy as we get closer to launch, so please appreciate the thread needs to run on updates, not random posts.

Should Endeavour launch, this thread will continue for Flight Day 1 updates. With new threads for each of the upcoming Flight Days.
Godspeed Endeavour.

May be off topic but Houston just informed the ISS that 2B is back in autotrack though still showing anomalous signatures.

Looks like a lovely morning - as much as it's not expected to stay that way. Also they have positioned to a close up of the GUCP.

MMT meeting, and hopefully they'll have time for donuts and coffee this time to make up for the tanking test meeting
http://www.nasaspaceflight.com/2009/07/shannon-comments-tanking-test-live/"“In support of the tanking test, if we are on for Wednesday, will have a tanking weather telecon at 06:30 before the tanking at 07:00.
That will be a quick meeting, with no donuts or coffee. L-1 is planned at 09:00 a.m. on July 10.”

Is there a chance here that they'll scrub before tanking based on the forecast or will they tank ,even if the weather forecast has worsened , and still hope for a break?

Does anyone know what the "O-Spot" is and where it is? Flight or ground segment?
