It's the morning of Discovery's first launch attempt and I'm standing in front of the NASA Vehicle Assembly Building, sporting the historic 209-foot-tall painted American flag. Can you say thrilling?
The STS 133 NASA TweetUp group poses in front of the official NASA Countdown Clock with space shuttle Discovery on the launch pad in the background (I'm under the minus sign!).
