Space is big. Really big…

Already delayed twice by weather, the BBC report concern about a fuel sensor ahead of the latest Space Shuttle launch, although it’s only one of four sensors used. NASA are providing their usual excellent on-line coverage of Space Shuttle Mission STS-115:Atlantis, including the Launch Blog and a variety of NASA TV options. Lift-off is scheduled for 1140 EDT (16.40 here) Update Launch scrubbed at 1054 EDT. Pesky sensors.. Another attempt tomorrow.
