Sounds like they got a new data point in terms of the system behavior.
Agreed. Personally I support this scrub. Not sure why some media are being pretty confortational, bar the fact that they had very good questions - to the point where it compares with some of the really dull questions we tend to see at JSC.

I've got the feeling that you're counting delays etc. STS-115 has only suffered one late scrub...as in tanking had started.

The reason the press is being so confrontational is because they've got supervisors telling them, "get me a damned story!"
Truth: there is no story. The MMT is merely following their own guidelines.

Interesting that they've instrumented OV-105 to collect more data on this when it goes into a tanking next year.

Wow, I guess Seth is not a complete loss -- asked about the F3L Tyvek issue.

Yes. It was interesting that LeRoy asked about possibility of having RSS rolled around the vehicle to replace lost Tyvek cover for F3L. I thought that the schedule for a 24-turnaround didn't allow for that.

I recall they did that to snag a lost "pip pin" that dropped onto the aft ET attach struts for STS-92 (10 October 2000 launch attempt into the next one)...the problem is that they may not get the RSS back before the rain starts...
Leroy Cain is saying he thinks it's not an insurmountable problem...

I think this management team -- or at least the management as composed with the folks in their current chairs -- is harder for us armchair folks to figure out. (IMO, the press is in this category.)
Slightly rephrased, it doesn't have anything to do with the judgment calls the program is making, it's that we can't figure them out, which appears to be disorienting...
That's my speculation on the press reaction...

Wayne Hale made a comment the other day about having enough clean articles of clothing to go through the entire launch window, Saturday was originally out of the window so his manifest is going to need a recharge hehe

Chris, could you check with your ET sources what the status of the ECO sensors are now that they have drained the ET?
If they all went "dry" when the ET was drained it would indicate that they do have a good set of sensors and that they can proceed with a launch tommorow if LH2 sensor#3 would fail "wet" again.
