Staging looked awesome!

I assume it was due to sync issues, but the liftoff on my video screen occurred while PAO was saying "2...1..."

Same here...

PAO added info about control system and the glowing of the nozzle.

Mission control gave another nominal call.

5000 m/s.

By gosh, I think they're going to make it!

5000mps, 230km

Guess that was a victory roll then

Chris Bergin · « **Reply #536 on:** 06/04/2010 06:53 pm »

Roll is heavy now.

stockman · « **Reply #537 on:** 06/04/2010 06:53 pm »

Roll is definitely increasing...

Here's hoping the grass fires are the biggest problem they get!

I predict some big parties in California and Florida tonight!

7,000 meters per second. Approaching SECO-1.
