At first when I read the thread title I thought you were talking about some shuttle that was planned from suburbia to somewhere intown Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skwatra Posted July 26, 2005 Share Posted July 26, 2005 you don't need a telescope to see it. even without one, its cool to see station/shuttle crossing the sky, just looks like a fast moving star. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skwatra Posted July 29, 2005 Share Posted July 29, 2005 the detailed shuttle tile survey was completed this morning. everything checked out, though the official word on whether it is safe for the orbiter to come home will not be announced until sunday. as for future flights, the fleet is grounded right now, but we do not expect large delays at the moment. though i'm sure this will change.
