Sweet.  I'm 30 miles from Cape Canaveral where they're gonna do the launch.  If I had a decent camera I'd record it.

I hope nothing catastrophic happens like when they launched Columbia.
Isn't this shuttle doing something about Mars?

Nothing catastrophic like you strapping yourself to the Shuttle in a new inventive way to be emo?

Ok that was pathetic. I thought you were over the whole emo thing.

Anyways, they are launching in 20 minutes

During the 11-day flight, Atlantis' astronauts will deliver a new segment and a pair of solar panels to the orbiting outpost. They will also swap out a member of the space station's crew.

how much longer are they holding? I wanna go to bed soon
once upon a midnight dreary, while i pron surfed, weak and weary, over many a strange and spurious site of ' hot  xxx galore'. While i clicked my fav'rite bookmark, suddenly there came a warning, and my heart was filled with mourning, mourning for my dear amour, " 'Tis not possible!", i muttered, " give me back my free hardcore!"..... quoth the server, 404.

I'm exicted for some reason.


I always wonder what a Iranian team a mile away could do with a .50 cal sniper rifle.
Maybe that's why the last one blew up...


I'm just saying.

Why the timer holding at t minus 9 minutes?
Also, why would they launch with a hurricane nearby?
