Looked pretty cool. Liked how it punched through the low level clouds. The shot from the lakeshore with the reflections was awesome!

Note that the current "NASA on HD-Net" Guide listing is set for 2 hours after the current schedule for the first landing attempt.
Hopefully, tomorrow morning's Guide listing update will fix this, but there is a chance that it won't be...

Deorbit was originally schedule for orbit 249 (8:39 PM EDT landing), now it's orbit 248 (7:05 PM EDT landing).

Still scheduled for 7:05 pm EDT and now the HD-Net DVR event has changed to 7:00 pm - 7:10 pm EDT.

(Interestingly, on my 622, a 10 minute event does not even show up in the Guide...)

No-Go for deorbit to KSC on orbit 248 due to low cloud cover. It's supposed to break up in time for deorbit on rev 249, which would put landing back at 8:39 PM EDT.

If it's still No-Go on 249, both KSC and Edwards will be called up tomorrow.

HDNET has a message up saying they're going to cover it after the current program.

So much for live landing broadcasts on HDNet... :(

Does that not somehow violate the contract they had with NASA? Or does it have some kind of provision in it that says they can tape delay the broadcast as they see fit?
