Did they put a microphone on the ET camera for this launch? I heard the launch sounds past SRB sep, almost right up to "Press ATO".
I think they just forgot to turn off the microphone at the launch site and you could hear the wind howling.

Any further word on that violent shimmy just post SRB jettison? I've never seen anything like that before and I've had to have seen at least a half-dozen launches from the ET camera to date.

Forgive me for posting this...but I'm sure you can thank ATK & NASA for that one. My personal beef on mixing old propellant with new castings. I'm sure that's what we're seeing.

What would explain that happening when the SRB's are not attached?

I'm not totally sure...it seemed to be after SRB Sep. It could have just been second stage guidance kicking in. We'll find out in due course

Vehicle goes into attitude hold during the SRB sep sequence and then second stage closed-loop guidance initiates after sep. The vehicle remains in attitude hold until guidance converges.

There have been some temperature alarms in the starbord side of the orbiter's payload bay. Just confirmed it's not the OBSS, coming from some other piece of equipment. Not sure if there'll be an impact or just another tricky transducer.
Eventful mission no doubt.

For the rest of the mission, NavySpaceFan and I will say exactly the same thing at the same time.
"Great minds" ...
True enough!!!

Nice...a lot less editing during the final part of count and first stage.

All that was missing from the ascent team video was the James Horner soundtrack.

Wow, they are such professionals being able to remain that calm while diagnosing the vehicle! It amazes me every time I see it.

Have you seen the STS-93 video...if not proceed to L2 and watch it!

You'd get a wall of sound by just bringing up more audio loops than the flight director's. Listening to the GNC and Booster loops would have been interesting, too.

Certaintly, this should get the STS 93 treatment. A number of tricky issues on seperate systems to work! (Not qute 93 tricky..but still).

is there a link to listen to the flight controller loop later, after the broadcast on NASA TV?
