GEORGE DILLER: We're joined once again by NOAA-N Program Manager Marty Davis. We've got data. Marty, what can you tell us?
MR. DAVIS: So far things look very good. The spacecraft's responding. The solar arrays have been deployed.
We're now deploying some antennas. Everything seems to be lining up well. We have a good operating spacecraft so far.
And this process will go on for the next little while.
MR. DILLER: All right. So at this point, we're at where we had hoped to be.
The arrays are out and the boom is out, both. Is that correct?
MR. DAVIS: Yes. Correct. MR. DILLER: That's the news we were hoping for. DAVIS: Yup.
DILLER: Marty, thank you very much, and congratulations. MR. DAVIS: Thank you. We'll have to do this again.
MR. DILLER: Indeed. We get to do it for GOES very shortly. And in just a moment, we'll have Omar Baez, the NASA Launch Director,
come over and talk to us some about the countdown and the launch.
At T+ one hour, 22 minutes, 37 seconds into the mission, this is Delta Launch Control.
