Maybe the real reason of the delay is that there’s a fraking satellite on Discovery’s path, taking photos. Amazing photos, yes, but get out of the way, stupid satellite! This has been the most frustrating experience in my life – and I’ve been divorced two times.
Hopefully, it will launch tomorrow at 3pm if the weather is good. A 60 per cent chance right now. Godspeed, STS-133! [Wired]

The launch of the Space Shuttle Discovery has been postponed to no earlier than November 30. Once new timelines and other mission information is made available, a new mission television schedule will be posted to this site.
