Description of Driving Event:
Several days prior to the launch of the GOES-M/Atlas II mission in July of 2001 a discontinuity was identified regarding what the spacecraft response would be to specific lightning protection phase announcements as compared to the launch vehicle response during launch countdown operations. A potential for a launch countdown scrub existed which was not fully understood by the community until very late in the processing flow.
