I'm interested in the switch throws and the related procedures on the issue with the FES...
Just switched to alternate FES source since cooling not working effectively on the other source.

That was an awesome launch viewed from Cocoa Beach!
Great to see Atlantis back to flight at last!
I took some pictures if anyone would like?

Yeah a little but it was well after the critical time limit.

All the foam looked incredibly small! Go for APU shutdown!!

That looked cleaner than Discovery's to me. I'm just a fan, though. Only debris I really spotted was during ET separation.

I saw one bit coming off at about (guessing) T+3minutes, missing the wing leading edge, but coming close. However, I think it was quite small and clearly came off after it could have been dangerous. I didn't see any other.

I saw several incidents of foam shedding but the pieces were incredibly small and fell from the tank well after the time where Atlantis was in the sensible atmosphere so it should not be a concern. You'll see it all later today. Great stuff gents! -
