NTD: And launch director, NTD.
MIKE LEINBACH: Launch director.
NTD: Yes sir, we have exceeded our launch window for today.
LEINBACH: Okay, I copy that. Discovery launch director, air to ground one.
MARK POLANSKY: Go ahead.
LEINBACH: Okay, Roman, we gave it our best shot and did not get clear and convincing
evidence in the end
that the cloud ceiling rule was cleared enough for us. So we are going to have to declare a
scrub at this time. Appreciate your support and we'll be working on a scrub
turnaround plan for you. POLANSKY: Mike, we understand. Thanks to the team
for all their hard work. Try not to be too
disappointed and we will be ready to support the next time we get a chance.
LEINBACH: Okay, super. Looking forward to having you. NTD, launch director, air to ground.
NTD: Go ahead, sir.
LEINBACH: Yes sir. Give cutoff.
NTD: Okay. And SB, before we give cutoff, anything back there that we need to do?
SB: No sir, we're read to support.
NTD: Okay. And for all personnel, we're going to give cutoff here momentarily.
And CDLS gives cutoff at this time.
CDLS: CDLS copies, cutoff given.
BRUCE BUCKINGHAM: And we have officially scrubbed our launch for tonight.
Safing is in progress.
Scrub turnaround operations are commencing.
