I don't know, do y'all think Mike Finke wants those noise cancelling head phones?

seeing that bat reminds me of STS-32, when a lizard could be seen crawling around the top of the ET near the O2 vent right at liftoff. Barbecue Iguana!

Probably should lock the previous threads as well. FD1 and FD2 both got more "updates" this morning.

And: GREAT NEWS on the clean TPS (pre- RPM imagery, anyway)!

17A in work - this is for the targeting of the MC1 burn

The shuttle is also heading back to the -Z target track attitude and prepping to filter more Ku radar data.
