T-3 Hours and Holding...

That is the current status of Space Shuttle Mission STS-121 Discovery.

It's all good - besides that little crack they found in the insulating foam near the external fuel tank (Gees, and I was worried that my car smelt like burning leaves!) - and the 'holding' part is one of the many scheduled holds in the official countdown, which begins at "T-43 Hours and Counting".

Discovery is scheduled to launch at 04:38am Melbourne Time.

Too late to stay up for.
Too early to get up for.

Hope everything goes well for the crew.
