The prelaunch parties have wound down. People are settling into sleep awaiting Monday afternoon's launch. Above is a (highly telephotod) picture of Atlantis on Pad 39A I took while returning from the IMAX presentation at the KSC Visitors Center earlier this evening. Look closely just to the left of the white spherical tank and you can see the tip of the tank of the Endeavour stack waiting on Pad 39B in case of a rescue mission which hopefully will not be needed.
This will be my last post from Florida. If I get good launch photos I'll post a few after I'm settled in Houston. Otherwise my posts from Houston will be short and intermittent, with links to NASA or media sources for mission details. I'll be on 13 hour shifts as my real work gets underway.
