We saw a small brush fire near the pad in one of the pad camera images (not on the NASA TV feed). Can anyone at KSC confirm? The grassy areas near the pad looked pretty dry and brown in the images.
Its already been mentioned.
Small grass fire near the LH2 transfer line, but it pretty much self-extinguished.

Great coverage again, folks!
Watching the replays, it's so unusual not seeing the roll continue to the ISS orbit heading.

What was the initial call from the crew regarding the transient? Silly PAO stepped on them.

I did before I posted. Nothing there as it pertains to my question.
Let me rephrase - Word for word, what did the crew say ?

MNVR EXEC display will be used in MM 105 to burn and manuver to attitude.
(Obviously the actualy display says OMS 2

Why do they keep cutting off the replays if the thing runs into a cloud or goes out of frame for a second?! Be patient and shows us the whole thing! Grrrr. An irritating quirk easily fixed. Anyone else bothered by that or observing it?

Didn't see any debris events (to within my eye accuracy and feed quality!) up to SRB jettison, but noticed a slight roll/yaw a few seconds before they were separated... thrust assymetry again or just nominal tail-off transients?

Here's a basic question for those in the know... the Hubble orbit is about 100 miles higher than the space station, so extra fuel is required. I assume that the SRBs have standard loads, so can I assume that the external tank has extra hydrogen+oxygen?
Also, is the loss of signal from the external tank camera due to the higher altitude, or from a different orientation, or something else?

Based on what I'm hearing, the CDR call was "Houston, Atlantis, roll program with the FCS channel."

Less payload mass available

Due to the different inclination, they lost signal in the tracking station (Merritt Island, it was?) earlier than with ISS flights.
