SHUTTLE ATLANTIS COVERAGE

Watch out for 19 Muslims shooting down Atlantis with pea-shooters to stage "War On Terror, Part 2"

And 5 Israelis dancing?

Ah! another Ozone hole, and rocket fuel for breakfast.

Just a warning NASA bozo's:

ONE more incident with the shuttle and your funding is going bye-bye.

You have been warned constantly not to do this. Don't launch.

1710 GMT (1:10 p.m. EDT)

Filling of Atlantis' external fuel tank was called complete at 12:57 p.m. EDT. The tank has been pumped full with a half-million gallons of supercold liquid oxygen and liquid hydrogen. The three-hour fueling process started at 9:55 a.m. with the chilldown conditioning.

But given the cryogenic nature of the oxidizer and propellant, the supplies naturally boil away. So the tanks are continuously topped off until the final minutes of the countdown in a procedure called "stable replenishment."

With the hazardous tanking operation completed, the Orbiter Closeout Crew and Final Inspection Team have been given the OK to go out to the pad to perform their jobs. The closeout crew will ready Atlantis' crew module for the astronauts' ingress in a couple of hours; and the inspection team will give the entire vehicle a check for any ice formation following fueling.

The live coverage on NASA TV has started now too.

I know that others on a different website have had dreams concerning the numbers 711 and 8. I think there were some on here who said the same thing with the numbers 117. They said that it was supposed to crash and thought it was the stockmarket. They also said that in the dream, everybody saw it. Since the name of the shuttle is the Atlantis STS-117 and it takes off on the 8th, it would make sense that what they were dreaming was the shuttle crashing or exploding.

Lets hope so, could be awesome!

Atlantis aging issue.

"NASA announced that 24 helium and nitrogen gas tanks, named Composite Overwrap Pressure Vessels, in the Space Shuttle Atlantis are older than their designed lifetime (designed for 10 years, later cleared for another 10 years but in service now for 22 years). NASA said it cannot guarantee any longer that the vessels on Space Shuttle Atlantis will not burst or explode under full pressure."

FLIGHT DAY 1:
Launch
• Payload Bay Door Opening
• Ku.Band Antenna Deployment
• Shuttle Robot Arm Power Up
• External Tank Handheld Video, Umbilical Well Imagery and Wing Leading Edge Sensor Data Downlink

117 Successes and 2 failures for the Shuttle Fleet is actually quite amazing considering the amount of technology and the time frame it was built in.

i would rather say that this piece of junk called "shuttle" will explode...due to....errrrr...."some reason".

Jees Atma, nothing like getting an early start huh? Launch currently scheduled for 7:38 PM EDT.

why is it that nasa tv is now in black and white "monochrom colors"..lol?

HAARP goes down before the Shuttle launches and re-enters.
Expect a North Korean missile test within minutes of Shuttle launch.

I was thinking of going dancing tonight.

ALERT MISSION WILL ABORT






































GLP Comments will be investigated. so writers expect a knock on your door......

June 07, '07 Atlantis STS-117 - Mission Phoenix

Don't forget, the space shuttle Atlantis about to go up to the space station 'Isis' (ISS) is an 'echo' of last summer's hurricane/storm Ernesto. It was an 'Atlantean storm' that 'intelligently' interacted with Cuba, Atlantis STS-115, and the Lexington plane crash (destination Atlanta) before 'docking' with Virginia (=> Mary = Isis/ISS).

Uh-oh I see 2 Mormon "elders" heading this way.
AC right again!

2112 GMT (5:12 p.m. EDT)

T-minus 90 minutes and counting. Countdown clocks continue to tick down to T-minus 20 minutes where the next hold is planned. Countdown activities remain on track for liftoff at 7:38 p.m. There are no technical issues being worked and the weather is acceptable right now.

At this point in the count, the Ground Launch Sequencer software that will control the final nine minutes of the countdown has been initialized. Also, the solid rocket boosters' gas generator heaters in the hydraulic power units are turned on, the aft skirt gaseous nitrogen purge is starting and the rate gyro assemblies (RGAs) are being activated. The RGAs are used by the orbiter's navigation system to determine rates of motion of the boosters during the first stage of flight.

how long now

2 hours 8 minutes to liftoff.

wow that will be just before lunch here


thx

They are closing the hatch now.

THEY'RE TRAPPED!!

Whats the mission Atma ?

1 hour now

in a Committed state !

strapped into, and sitting on top of a very large fire cracker

I'm worried.
What happens if the shuttle is shot down by terrorists lurking in the bushes by the launch pad?

They are taking more crap to the ISS. Some new solar arrays I think.
