Well I was up this morning at 6:30
and the skies were totally clear!
Bah.
By 7 it was bright yes but I reckon we would have seen them.

So let's just wait and see....

More bad luck for NASA,but there bad luck might be our good fortune.No word yet when they try again,but anytime after tonight is when I thought we might get to see the tank and Shuttle after liftoff.Now all we need are clear Skies !!!!!!!!

If its put off several weeks then it'll be mid September, hopefully our Indian summer with any luck with good skies, helping our chances of seeing it.
