Astronauts arrive in Florida for Thursday launch - by Mark Carreau
The Atlantis astronauts arrived at NASA's Kennedy Space Center on Monday morning, prepared to lift off this week on a delayed mission to the international space station with Europe's Columbus science module. The 11-day mission is scheduled for launch at 1:45 p.m. CST Thursday. Thursday's weather outlook includes a 60 percent chance of stormy weather linked to the passage of a cold front. Conditions are expected to improve significantly on Friday and Saturday, if the rain and lightning associated with the passage force a postponement.
