• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

'Atlantis' Launch @ 2:28pm EST Today on NASA TV (11/16/09)

That's pretty cool!

when you first log on to that, you get to see a time lapse sequence of the shuttle and booster being conveyed to the launch pad before you actually see the real time launch pad video ... :applause:
 
Yeah they do 'filler' segments during the programmed holds these days. That was interesting to watch. About 1/2 hour now to launch now...

EDIT:10 minutes now...Go for launch.
 
God Speed Atlantis! :engel016: (After all these years I still hold my breath at the command, "Go for throttle up".... :kilroy:

I loved the camera from the external tank. It showed Atlantis punching a really large hole through the middle of a cloud. Looked like it sucked half that cloud along to space. :icon_lol:
