still external tank separation to see. I thought I saw something coming off about 20 seconds in hopefully just my crappy internt connection causing a glitch!

Awh, I missed it. Woke up too late...

I used to really want to work for NASA, go to MIT or Caltech, be an astronaut or at least something involved with astronomical research.

Now I'm wishing NASA would divert some of its budget to more environmental satellites and monitoring (perhaps thats what happens when you start paying taxes :p:
