STS 113 is scheduled for launch on 2002 Nov 11. Based on the latest ISS elements: 1 25544U 98067A 02311.49506131 .00047739 00000-0 61840-3 0 3464 2 25544 51.6397 53.4297 0014233 112.7032 351.2466 15.58280465226328 here are my predicted lift-off times for the three days beginning Nov 11: Shuttle to ISS: Pad 39A Launch Time Launch Coplanar Lift-off Date UTC UTC ----------------------------------- 2002 Nov 11 06:01:24 05:58:32 2002 Nov 12 05:37:46 05:32:45 2002 Nov 13 05:14:07 05:10:14 The times are 3 s later than my previous prediction, due to the recent increase in the rate of ISS's orbital decay. Assuming the ISS elements remain reliable for the dates in question, the predictions should be accurate to within +/- 10 s.
