5 minute launch window to dock with the space station. Latest word out of the morning meeting is a 50/50 launch chance. No confirmation on that though, coudl be inaccurate.

Hope the weather clears up, you can see it from Tampa on a nice day. Pretty amazing that you can see it from the other side of the state.

Night launches were the best. It looks like daytime for a few seconds.
