No!! 
This was expected as they're entering the Zone of Exclusion(ZOE).
I know that, it's was only a spontaneous reaction.

I wish they would say "stop" instead of "abort" as abort sounds more serious especially when there is no KU available to see what they see.

Richard
They use "abort" because that's the name of the PCS command the crew sends to stop the array. Sticking to the standard nomenclature is policy because it prevents confusion between the crew and the ground.

Thanks Jorge, I did not know that and I have been wondering about it since STS-116.
