10:54 a.m. - Scrub! We are going into a 24-hour scrub turnaround due to the ECO sensor issues. We will de-tank and try again tomorrow. Launch Director Mike Leinbach explained the issue to the crew and told them that we will see how the vehicle responds tomorrow, and that we should have a good weather day tomorrow as well. Launch time tomorrow would be 11:14:49 a.m.
"10:47 a.m. - The final load of Atlantis' computers is now complete."
