Space shuttle launch

Recommended Posts

The weather over Zaragosa is a bit worrying confused.gif

Zaragosa is one of the potential emergency landing places and needs to have good weather before take-off....

i really admire the spationauts who fly those space shuttles , it needs a lot of skills and experience to do it well and it can be dangerous (Challenger 1986)

don't worry . there are several space shuttle launches during the year and most of them are broadcasted in live on most TV's

but it renders way better when you see the REAL think with your on eyes

I wonder if they`ll ever build a giant battle cannon to launch probes and satallites into space instead of rocket motors.

I've got to find this manual we have about the space shuttle, maybe I can follow along.

The college I'm going to next year, K-State at Salina, is 4th in line for an emergency space shuttle landing.
