It's a live webcast. I'll be watching Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edsel Posted March 19, 2007 Report Share Posted March 19, 2007 Re: Watch space launch realtime at 4 PM pacific, mar 19 Just heard them say they are holding to determine why they had an abort. They will be taking about 10 more minutes to investigate before they make a decision. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cancer Posted March 20, 2007 Report Share Posted March 20, 2007 Re: Watch space launch realtime at 4 PM pacific, mar 19 I am so reminded of all the scrubbed launches I wanted to watch on network TV back in the mid-60s. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sociotard Posted March 21, 2007 Author Report Share Posted March 21, 2007 Re: Watch space launch realtime at 4 PM pacific, mar 19 It looks like they may be trying again today. The camera is working anyway. Edit: nevermind, the clock says T+ so they probably scrubbed it again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
