When the STS-117 crew and Launch and Mission Control do their Countdown Demonstration Test on Friday, will Jessica Rye also be in the Firing Room practicing her commentary for the real launch day? Does TCDT go all the way down to the public affairs commentator even when they are not being broadcast Live on NASA TV for TCDT?

Has the S3/S4 payload been installed into the Atlantis payload bay?
Yes it was installed today.

Thanks for the update. It's good to know that everything is going as planned.
By the way, does anyone have any good pictures of the RSS covering Atlantis or being rolled toward it. Like to keep my desktop updated! Thanks.

Yep indeed! It's Tuesday/Wednesday next week. Then it's only about 2 weeks until launch!

Less than a month to go. This one isn't that far away, so we should all get our game faces on soon!
No new mentions of SRB issues, so this is all very clean right now in the flow.

Amen. I went ahead and put the patch on my flight jacket ahead of the launch as usual. Game face is on!

I was wondering if those issues have been resolved...

They'd be the biggest birthday candles in my 37 years on earth!
As for trying to blow them out...I think I'll watch from the safety of my home TV, thank you very much!

We hope you get your candles Austin. Just don't forget to make a wish!! In the meantime...looks like a few KSC workers are still workin' in and around the bird. Are there 24/7 operations until launch? I'm still a bit confused as far as shifts work.

Thanks a bunch, Nathan.
Jim -- do you how soon before launch they actually begin 24/7 ops?
