Shuttle Processing Note (previous notes)

Flight control managers at Johnson Space Center decided to wave off both landing attempts for a second consecutive day due to low clouds, showers and possible thunderstorms in the Kennedy Space Center vicinity that would violate weather constraints at time of landing. Edwards Air Force Base in Calif., was not called up for backup today. Forecasters predict much improved weather conditions for landing tomorrow at both KSC and Edwards. Endeavour has five potential opportunities to land tomorrow, with the first of two landing opportunities available at KSC at 10:53 a.m. EDT with deorbit burn occurring at 9:44 a.m. The second landing opportunity for tomorrow would be 12:27 p.m. EDT. Three attempts follow at Edwards Air Force Base, with the first opportunity occurring at 1:58 p.m. EDT.
