Anonymous Coward User ID: 1303566 United States 05/31/2011 10:27 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Florida Peeps~ WIll You Hear The Boom? Space Shuttle Endeavour set for landing overnight... Space shuttle Endeavour is set to land at Kennedy Space Center at 2:35 a.m. Wednesday, finishing up STS-134 and ending the career of the orbiter, the penultimate mission of the space shuttle program. The path of the landing attempt will take the shuttle across Central America and Mexico, into the Gulf of Mexico west of Cuba and across the state of Florida, coming up from the southwest around Bonita Springs, then across Polk and Osceola counties south of Kissimmee and into Brevard County. Those in downtown Orlando and south might hear the double sonic boom as the orbiter makes its descent. Those directly under the path in Central Florida should hear the boom strongest 10 minutes and less leading up to landing. The boom can be heard about 40 miles away from the path.

Ft. Myers here, posted on the live thread. I was out watching the sky since 2:15am. Heard the boom no prob, just wonder why you can see the sky and stars so clear but nothing flying over at all. You'd think the sky would have a streak or lights or something lol. Just stars. Bright stars horizon to horizon. |
