iopenhi 0 #7 May 21, 2009 After all these years in the Sunshine State, I finally had the opportunity to see a launch from closer than Lakeland. I had an on-site meeting with a client of ours on launch day and was able to watch from about a mile west of the VAB. Truly f'ing spectacular...You can't make chicken salad out of chicken manure.

I thought the landing was scheduled for Friday from the beginning. It probably won't happen anyway, weather will send it to cali."Always do right.

lawrocket 3 #10 May 22, 2009 The landing ground tracks have been published. First chance will fly ENE south of CONUS and pretty much due east across FLA. the next chance an hour later will bring it over southern Texas through Lousiana & Mississippi - so there are sighting opportunities for plenty of y'all.

lawrocket 3 #18 May 24, 2009 Shuttle a go to land at Edwards this a.m. On Runway 22. Deorbit burn going down in about 20 minutes. All of you on the Central Coast through Bakersfield (and those at Taft) will get the nice double boom and another hour or so. My wife is hotter than your wife.
