He might not be as sexy as Neil Armstrong, but I got this sudden affection for Mark Polansky. This Twitter thing gave me a sense of what it's like to sit and wait to launch only to be scrubbed, held in quarantine, and sent home. Mark Polansky, aka Mr-Bed-Time-At-12:15-hours, tweets:Back home now. Here's the silver lining out of the delay: I'm out of quarantine for a few weeks, & I get to see my family again. That's big!

Poor guy. Will he get to try again in July?
I read: Endeavour's next launch opportunity is July 11. This date comes after the end of an orbital sun-angle condition called a beta angle cut-out, which occurs between June 22 and July 10.
