I know. I really wish they would have stayed with that shot for SSME start. Oh well... one can dream for 123. -

And that shot would be at night if things go well with Endeavour over the course of the next month. -

Does anyone has the exact launch time in format 1945:30.XXXUTC?
19:45:29.952, according to http://spaceflight.nasa.gov/realdata/sightings/SSapplications/Post/JavaSSOP/orbit/SHUTTLE/SVPOST.html
I prefer to add 36 milliseconds to it for the getting 19:45:29.988 time, which exactly means SRB Ignition Command from GPC time used in Space Shuttle Mission Reports as Liftoff time... -

In the hand-held video taken of the ET on STS-122, has anyone noticed or commented on what appears to be a ?bolt? It doesn't appear to be ice. It looks like a cylinder with straight edges dumbbelling end-over-end. It appears around minute 3:30 in the video in the lower right of the picture and for the next 20 seconds appears with the ET venting. If it is a bolt, that's not expected right?

Ice.
