Probable Last Night Space Shuttle Launch Postponed

If you forgot to set your alarm and missed the scheduled space shuttle launch this morning, don't be bummed. Due to weather concerns, the launch was scrubbed for 24 hours and will be attempted again Monday morning around 4am EST. This is likely the last night launch for the venerable Space Shuttle so if you haven't had a chance to see one, here's your last opportunity. If you're on the east coast of the US, you might be able to spot it as it climbs into orbit. Each day of delay pushes the launch time 22 to 26 minutes earlier. Future launch opportunities include 4:14 a.m. ET on Monday and 3:51 a.m. on Tuesday. Should weather or technical issues delay the launch until Feb. 22, liftoff would then be scheduled for 9:48 p.m. ET. Comments
