MISSION STS-112 -- 15TH ISS FLIGHT (9A) ? S1 Truss Segment

VEHICLE: Atlantis/OV-104
TARGET LAUNCH DATE: Oct. 2, 2002 NET
TARGET LAUNCH PERIOD: 2 ? 6 p.m. EDT
TARGET LANDING DATE: Oct. 13, 2002=20
MISSION DURATION: 11 days=20
CREW: Ashby, Melroy, Wolf, Sellers, Magnus, Yurchikhin
ORBITAL ALTITUDE AND INCLINATION: 122 nautical miles, 51.6 degrees
Shuttle Processing Note: As preparations at the Kennedy Space Center
progress smoothly toward Wednesday?s scheduled launch of the Space
Shuttle Atlantis, program managers continue to monitor the progress of
Hurricane Lili to assess the storm?s potential impact to the Mission
Control Center at the Johnson Space Center in Houston.
While Hurricane Lili poses no immediate threat to KSC, the storm is
currently predicted to make landfall on the Gulf coast somewhere between
Louisiana and Houston, Texas, near the end of the week. Mission managers
will meet today to discuss the progress and forecast for Hurricane Lili. =

At KSC, the launch control team is not tracking any serious issues at
this time. Overnight, liquid oxygen and liquid hydrogen reactants were
loaded into Atlantis? power reactant and storage distribution system.
Major activities today include activating communications systems later
this afternoon and rolling back the Rotating Service Structure away from
the orbiter this evening. Should managers decide to proceed with launch,
tanking operations will begin Wednesday morning.=20
Currently, Atlantis remains scheduled for an on time launch Wednesday,
October 2, between the hours of 2-6 p.m. The exact launch time will be
announced later today. Air Force weather forecasters are currently
predicting a 40 percent chance of violating launch criteria on
Wednesday. The primary concerns are for possible coastal showers and
winds beyond allowable limits at KSC?s Shuttle Landing Facility.=20
STS-112 crew will be spending the day relaxing, reviewing their flight
plans and flying in the Shuttle Training Aircraft. The crew is commanded
by Jeff Ashby and piloted by Pam Melroy. Mission specialists include:
David Wolf, Piers Sellers, Sandra Magnus and Fyodor Yurchikhin.
