Until now weather still make question for all people whose watch this launch include Most Number One Man in United State Barrack Obama, US Rep. Gabrielle Giffords, Star Trek actor LeVar Burton. The skies above Kennedy Space Center in Florida were mostly sunny in this morning, but Chief Weather said that the storm has made destruction through Alabama headed florida coast "may be this night the weather is get little bad condition". if clouds still in low until launch time at 15.47 ET friday, the launch have too delay at least for 24 hours. Possibility of this launch can predict with downgrade weather outlook from 80 percent to 70 percent. Which is still in good condition, it forecast to go. Jeff clauding as NASA Test Director said the countdown process was proceeding without technical hitches. But If launch has to put on hold in friday, whether for weather or for the other reason, they still have opportunities at least three to liftoff on this week.
This launch is important, cause some several reason to make it, It is Endeavour final launch before it head to retirement in California Science Center in Los Angeles. It will be second launch to final for endeavour self for bring 2 million Spektrometer Alpha Magnetic, one of the biggest physic experiment ever launched into the orbit. except that, this will gonna be like love story between Giffords and his husband, Endeavour commander Mark kelly.
Barrack Obama and his family watch this launch too from space center, beside visiting in storm sticken Alabama which address at Miami Dade College. The last president for sitting the launch was Bill Clinton to came to see senator Astronot John Glenn in 1988.
