T+plus 3 minutes. Discovery's main engines continue to fire, guzzling a half-ton of propellant per second.  :eek:

Drudge report story about "large debris" falling off during launch...

It makes me angry...  maybe I shouldn't, but they have had a long time to work on this thing.  There was stuff falling off of it while is was sitting still a week ago.

The only thing I saw fall off were boosters?

The one piece I saw ddin't hit the shuttle itself.  News is saying nasa techs have hours of footage to look over and the shuttle will be inspected at the ISS.

IT'D BE AWSOME IF A SHUTTLE LANDED HERE BEFORE I LEAVE NEXT SRPING

Too bad it costs NASA about a million extra bucks to fly it home.
