NASA Clears Shuttle Atlantis for Sunday Launch 40
Davemania writes "This Sunday, NASA will resume the reconstruction of the International Space Station with the launch of the Space Shuttle Atlantis. NASA predicts a 60% chance that the weather will hold but will be keeping their eye at Tropical Storm Ernesto. The six-astronaut crew is tasked with deploying two large solar arrays and integrating the port 3/port 4 truss segment. As usual, the live launch can be seen on NASA TV."

Well, you never know when you're going to get lunched into space.
Sometimes, these get togethers ...just..take...off.
And of course, the shuttle has plenty of LOX. What better way to have Sunday lunch than with salmon and cream cheese.
Yeaap. I'm done now.

The eight balls like they used for attitude control on Apollo and on the old shuttle are gone.
Is it safe to launch now?
