Remember all:

The launch is scheduled for late Friday night, not tonight, Thursday.

When's is scheduled to lift off???

I drove down to Canaveral in May to watch the one blast off that fixed the Hubbel. What a fantastic thing!!! Only the Saturn V would give me a bigger "charge!"

God bless our astronauts and the team that supports their missions! We've got one from Stockton, CA goin up on this one, I think. He may be the first hispanic in space...

With all the scrubs lately I keep thinking about that scene in Airplane! II where they are jump starting the shuttle with a 57 Chevy.

The reason why I posted it early cause I’ll be at work and I’m usually not on the computer Friday...

Thanks for posting.

I can’t wait to watch it! I’d love to ride on one of those things, or something like it someday. I think it would be incredibly fascinating to lift off for the sky, pass through the atmosphere, and look back to the planet from space. I could imagine the view of the stars is incredible from space too. Much better than from a country road in the middle of a Moonless night.
