Shuttle Endeavour had two scrubbed launches in June and now two over the weekend. The astronauts are itchin' to get to the International Space Station! The crew is set to blast off at 6:51 PM Florida time (3:51 PM in Arizona) on Monday. The problem with the weekend launches were storms. As with Arizona in the summer, Florida usually sees quite a few of afternoon storms. Any lightning even close to the shuttle will keep it on the ground. If Endeavour does launch, you can watch it live on NASA TV. Plus follow along with all the preparations for launch at NASA's Launch Blog. Postings begin about three or four hours before launch.
