Os meteorologistas da NASA dizem haver uma possibilidade de 70% de clima favorável ao lançamento. Neste momento não estão a ser seguidos nenhuns problemas pelo Controlo da Missão que possam ser impeditivos do lançamento à hora prevista.Como de costume, poderá seguir a contagem decrescente, o lançamento e grande parte da missão através do site da NASA Television.
Pode também obter detalhes técnicos no site NASA Spaceflight.
Aqui fica o horário previsto para a contagem decrescente:
Nota: As horas são as locais no Centro Espacial Kennedy. Adicione 5 horas para obter a hora de Lisboa.
