The countdown is now in the middle of a planned 14 hour hold
that started on time at 1900 EDT last night.  During that time,
workers opened the cargo bay doors and filled the DoD's package
with liquid helium.  After the hold ends, they will activate
the guidance system, preparing for Sunday mornings loading of
liquids hydrogen and oxygen into the external tank.
