Here we are with another Shuttle launch. Only another 1000 days to go. We're going to miss that.
HD television is available @nasa new web site but not for live videos unfortunately. May be one day on the net. On top of Colombus delivery, when Atlantis will leave the ISS, we'll have the 3rd version (out of 4 scheduled) of the 16's ISS expedition crew as follow : Witson - Malenchenko - Anderson Witson - Malenchenko - Tani Witson - Malenchenko - Eyharts Witson - Malenchenko - Reisman It's nice that (the) Atlantis will deliver Colombus (remind me of something) -------------------- |

One thing I have never done is witnessed a Shuttle launch. I realized this week that I had better get my act in gear if I want to catch one! Anyone for a UMSF Discovery party on April 24?

24 hour scrub called due to ECO sensors in the fuel tank indicating dry when wet.
