Anyone see any debris? Looked astoundingly clean to me.
From what I saw the launch looked very clean.
I saw some small bits of something go under (from the camera POV) and toward the tip of the right wing well after SRB sep. It could have been ice from the aft even. Very clean.
I saw that too, most likely a non issue as there does not appear to have been contact (even if there was it would have been rather low energy, that piece of stuff was kinda drifting).
Very clean launch. NASA makes it looks so easy!!!!!
Now if we could just get STS 135........................

That's the busiest the site's been since we got the new servers, and Mark did a lot of programming work. Held at full service even under 300-400 requests per second. Big thanks to Mark, and the L2 members for allowing us to fund these servers.

That was odd. In that last view the SRB nozzles appeared to be gimbling like crazy for a while after the roll. But it was hard to tell if it was real or just atmospheric distortion or camera shake.

Did anyone notice what appeared to be a jet of gas under the external tank in the DOAMS replay?

Okay, just saw this same thing from another angle. From that one, it looked more like the recirculation plume just dancing around a bit more than I've seen in the past.
