Hi Mike,

I think it's actually 1.55pm, Saturday Nov 15, AEDT (7.55pm Nov 14 US EST + 16 hours).

I caught a headline this morning that apparently a cold front is approaching Kennedy, so the launch might be delayed depending on the weather.

Cheers,

Jonathan

Hi Jonathan

On the NASA Shuttle page, it says launch is in 3 days and 4 hours, so that makes it Saturday 11:55am, not Friday 11:55am. I'll update my post.

Thanks for the heads-up. I hope the weather clears.

You're right -- it's 11.55am Saturday.

I've just fixed my site -- I had it down as 1:55pm.

Time zone conversions between here and the US have been a bit of a nightmare over the past couple of weeks, with us going onto daylight saving and them coming off.

Cheers!

Jonathan
