10:35 EDT - Watch the Astronauts pass by, less than 100 feet from us, at the Firing Room, attached to the Vehicle Assembly Building. How cool is it that we are the last Non-NASA Employees to wave and cheer these heroes! They are now getting the orbiter, one at a time, as the clock runs at T - 2:27:00 and counting!
10:00 EDT - We just heard from one of the Deputy Directors of NASA! She talked about the Obama Plan for the future of space flight. Interesting conversation!
9:25 EDT - I have arrived at the "Twent" for the Launch of Atlantis! Let me tell you, this place has come alive today! We had to pass through 4 Levels of Security to get to the Press Area! Upon arrival, there was media everywhere! As I walked up to the Twent, I noticed that the Countdown Clock is at T - 3:00:00 and holding. NASA-TV is playing here in the Twent, and we have the Audio coming down from NASA to us. This is truly incredible! The weather looks perfect, but the NASA Weather Officer is going to come talk to us in a bit! Tune in here today, as I will be updating often as I will be here all day! Go Atlantis! Tweet me any questions you may have to @BeOurGuestMike
8:11 EDT - Getting ready to leave the Days Inn here in Titusville to head south to the Kennedy Space Center Press Viewing Area! This is going to be awesome today! It is beautiful out! A great day to send six heroes and a beautiful orbiter into space!
SpaceFlightNow.com will be at the Press Area all day, and you can watch live coverage on the web starting at 9:30 EDT! Just click on the link at the top right-hand corner!
See ya at the Press Area! I need some milk and donuts!
This is where I am headed to see STS-132 Launch in a few hours! Can't wait!
