Did anyone else see that thing floating out of the bay? The same angle in this view but its not in the image. It looks kinda like some kind of nut or washer.

Saw it. Not sure what it was, though.

Burn started with a little jolt and a noticeable red coloured puff from the RCS system in the nose.
EDIT: I was wrong, the puff was from the OMS, I thought I was looking forward.

The view is from an aft-looking camera...that was the flash from the OMS...

Hmm, thought I heard they said it was an aft-located camera.
But can be easily settled. At what side of the orbiter is the OBSS?

You're looking at the OBSS in its cradle, with the arm grappled to it from the top of the screen.
(The OBSS cradle is on the starboard sill of the payload bay.)

Yeps, you were right of course. I've found a picture on the net that explains it all. The RMS is on the left side on the orbiter and the OBSS on the right with both of their cradles on the forward side of the orbiter.

Does anyone know where hi-res pictures of yesterday's launch are available online? I checked the NASA website and they don't have very many at all. Sorry in advance if this is the wrong place to post this but I'm fairly new to the site and don't know where were this would be appropriate. Thanks.

If you want NASA's you'll need to wait on the NASA website to post them, it's not an instant process.

i know, I just remember them posting a variety of images the day after launch on the last few missions. Oh well, I can wait. Thanks.

In the wide-angle view of Mission Control that shows the front three screens, the left side is bordered by the American flag, but what is the emblem bordering the rightmost screen?

Thanks, Lee. Interesting emblem....I wonder if the orange ball with what looks like an oribital path signifies Mars.
