Info on projected shuttle delays if the Gov. Shutdown Happens

[bearlyanne]

I immediately thought about everyone who is planning on adding the shuttle launch into their trip when I read this in a PBS article.

The space shuttle Endeavor would still be on track to launch April 29, assuming the shutdown does not last more than a week. Past that time, each additional day of the shutdown would delay the launch by a day.

Okay, officially hoping for just over a two week shutdown now. (We get there May 8 ).
