  And with that I quote SCA Flight Engineer Larry LaRose: "You don't sneak into town with an orbiter," it brings out a big crowd everywhere we go. It's a life experience for a lot of folks who have never seen something like this before."

• C9 pathfinder has landed.

• I would think they could at least record some inflight video from the inside of the SCA cockpit, or the outside looking at various angles.  I would imagine they have some kind of video of the connection spots so they can check them every once in a while at least, right?
  
  Anyone know of a camera on the SCA exterior or interior that is used, and if any recordings of those views would ever be available?

  There's no cameras whatsoever on the SCAs, either inside or outside.
