This one is only around the corner, so getting this on a placeholder already...

Here's to wishing a wonderful trip for Discovery and her crew running around in circles of radius 6700 km (or thereabouts). ;)

So, you're login name is NavySpaceFan, your location is Norfolk, VA (the biggest Navy town in the U.S.), and you know that STS-124's CDR and PLT are both Navy.  Just a hunch, is there a pro-Navy bias here?


Disclosure: I proudly served in the Navy right out of high school. Go Navy! :)

Go Discovery, and your sisters' Endeavour and Atlantis will be watching you with there eyes as you lift off the pad and head off to the ISS. Farewell to the crew of Discovery, and have a safe and successful flight!!!

Not entirely sure this is the right place, but since some people have been asking for a while now about the looming deadling vs. flight rate of the shuttle I just thought this was a good place/time to remind everyone that when Discovery launches this weekend it will be NASA's 6th Shuttle mission in the ONE YEAR time span from STS-117 on June 8, 2007. SIX flights in one year... that's something to celebrate and remember for the future when this flight rate argument comes up again!

Cheers! And God speed Discovery.  :D

Discovery,

You better go up on the 31st, as if you do, I can see docking.  If you don't, please go up on Tuesday, June 2nd, as I could see docking then.  Any other days are not good for me.

Thanks!
-Steven


(LOL!  In all truthfulness, go up whenever you can, Discovery.  Godspeed.  I'll be here to watch, as well as millions of others.)

Yay, Discovery!

My kids have made their mission t-shirts and we're ready. This will be our third launch in a row and we'll be at the causeway. I'm beside myself and already can't sleep from excitement!

Best of luck to the crew and ground control, you all ROCK!

Here's my edited STS-124 patch, with the JEM looking more realistic in size compared to the other ISS modules in the original patch! :)
