Obviously scrubbed last night. Just got scrubbed for tonight due to a faulty valve.

Was a real clear night too. I was up and looked but didn't see anything. Saw later this morning why. :smash: The good news is every day later it's like 45 minutes later in time so maybe it will still happen b4 sunrise.

couldn't or shouldn't the hubble telescope furnish the space station with some of it's parts....
like the solar collectors for example?

seems like a waste to have all those expensive parts just burn up in the atmosphere :doh:
