Rick Sturckow/Capcom: Hey, Dex. The folks really worked it hard down here and there
was a lot of cause for optimism with breaking up all around the SLF.
But, in the end of the day, it's just too low of a ceiling and visibility. It got down to 200 broken at 2 miles visibility.
And Fergie just tried to dive on his most recent one and couldn't even see the field and had to wave off high.
So, we're "no-go" for the deorbit burn. We're going to send you to the top of page 3-11 and you can have Mash
do that step there where it says "take the high-main pump presses through and back to norm."
And then you don't need to go back to 3-01 because you're already there.
And then you can pick up "If 24-hour extension," and there's going to be one delta on the RCS. Standby.
And the one delta is on the right RCS.
We want both of them to GPC talk back open on the right RCS heliums.
Alan Poindexter/STS-131 Commander: OK. We understand about the right RCS heliums,
C.J. We'll leave them in that GPC talk back open.
And we know how hard you guys worked it today and we appreciate everything.
And we've been there on off-nominal-weather days and know how much workload it is.
We appreciate everything you've done and we'll be hopeful for better weather tomorrow.
Rick Sturckow/Capcom: Sounds great, Discovery. And once you get to the bottom of 3-11,
we'll follow you over to the deorbit prep backout and work through those procedures with you.
Alan Poindexter/STS-131 Commander: Sounds great, C.J. Mash is working them now.
Brandi Dean/Landing Commentator: Capcom Rick Sturckow, there, letting
Discovery's crew know that weather again is going to interfere with the second opportunity today.
That would have been at 9:23 a.m. Central time. Low clouds again in the area, making it
a "no-go" for a shuttle landing at Kennedy Space Center today.
So, the crew will plan to try again tomorrow. They've got landing opportunities at Kennedy Space Center starting at 6:33 a.m.
Central time, and opportunities at Edwards Air Force Base in California at 8 a.m. Central time.
