I just looked outside and it's overcast now, so I guess I'll be going to bed soon.
Thanks for keeping us up to date on your sleep plans. I'll add it to the article

NASA Wallops:
The window is officially open..... but the weather is still a problem. The window remains open until 3 a.m.
But on the loop they confirmed managers are talking on the landlines about this unknown issue.

PAO's turned up on the loop. Says it's foggy but the window's open until 3am. No reference to the noted problem which we've all heard on the loop.
At least it's referenced on the twitter feed it seems. Would prefer PAO to be commentating instead of faffing around on bookface.

Wallops:
As some heard on the webcast, there was a discrepancy between the onboard GPS and the ground equipment showing position during vertical test

Loop noting they don't know if they will launch tonight based on the above discrepancy.

"What are the chances we're going to launch tonight"

Safing the vehicles. Assuming a 24 hour recycle. No word on that yet.

I didn't think any ops team would be worse than the Ames Science Ops team during the LCROSS impact.
I was wrong. NASA really needs some cross-pollination between real ops and launch teams and these newbs if all that is on the manifest is unmanned stuff for the foreseeable future.

A question was posed to @NASA_Wallops and I didn't see an answer about whether the ISS crew might witness the ATREX test. I did a quick run on Heavens-Above.com and noted a pass late in the window, as attached. Anyone have any thoughts on what might have been seen if they happened to have launched just at the right time?
