Default Friday the 13th - space shuttle

I have to be at a meeting tomorrow morning at 6 am (Saturday) in preparation for the shuttle landing, then stick around until after the thing's on the ground (in other words, I gotta work).

I was discussing this with a fellow mission manager yesterday and we were both pondering why this flight is landing tomorrow instead of today. We always land roughly 48 hours after undocking from the station. We undocked Wednesday morning.

This is a scheduled 14 day flight. Saturday is flight day 15.

Is NASA superstitious? I'm gonna have to ask this question at the morning meeting. I'll let ya know.
