Being selfish of course I hope it's delayed 3 weeks when we're over there. If it goes on time enjoy it if you're there as it's a spectacular sight and noise, we saw one go up a few years ago, and there aren't too many shuttle missions left till the remaining craft are retired.

3 more to go after the April 5th launch. Nearly 29 years after it's first orbital flight, there is nothing on the horizon to replace it.

A bit like Concorde, the Shuttle was so far ahead when launched but was never really built upon. It was almost as if US politicians decided that Space had become dull.
