STS-126

Hmm, interesting. How has it compared to the heaviest shuttle flight on record? I did some Googling but did not see any data.

I know, I didn't find any info either, but this is what I thought I heard over the TV.

Edit;

OH NO! AN UFO! Ok, It's just an Helicopter...

I wonder what would happen if the helicopter accidentally flew into the landing pad...
 
How do they get up the ladder into the flight deck when its horizontal & sideways???

Magic. ;)

If you look closely at the videos, you can see that they are actually standing on the aft wall of the Shuttle ;)
 
The Space Shuttle Program is truly amazing. You can't deny that...
 
Ah. So that's how they do it...

They climb up the floor....

Actually, it is just an Apollo on steroids, which collided badly with a B-1B Lancer Bomber.

The true magic behind the Shuttle is the fact, that it really works (And I say that as SSU developer)
 
Hmm...

I just had a thought...

How much of my download limit will NASA TV eat up???

I only have 10gb per month...

If your viewing the smallest version then its 1,000 KBs, so about 3 hours I think.

but if you can only download at 30KBs, like me, then you can go for about 100 hours...

CAPCOM is Alan "Dex" Poindexter. Dex made his first flight as PLT on STS-117/ISS 13A mission in June 2007 that saw the installation of the S3/S4 trusses with it's associated Solar Array Wings and retraction of the 2B Power Channel Solar Array Wing of the P6 truss.
