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:
