Now that was amazing. Talk about a Birdseye view of the Launch. Thanks for posting that Frank. Going to repost that on Boards if you don't mind.
Thrilled with the 24hr postponement till 5am our time. 5:20 is super in terms of darkness and Saturday is super in terms of Cloud. 1% forcasted for Wicklow whereas 100% if it was launching Friday 5am. Now I just have to decide whether I stay up for this, or get up for this.

We're probabily going to have a club observing session if its clear that night (high hopes here), I cant think of a better way of finishing off the night then watching a shuttle launch pass overhead !

Do ya hear that Michael Murphy and Dave Brannigan. The lads expect to finish their observing session with the Shuttle Launch....at 5:30am !! We're letting the Munster boys show us up. They think us Leinster boys are a bunch of lightweights with our 2am finishes!!
