STS-119 Launch


It's amazing to me that from my hotel room in Shenzhen, China on Monday morning, I could watch the Sunday evening launch of the shuttle Discovery live on NASA TV. It's not as spectacular on a tiny PC video window with tiny PC speakers, but it's still pretty spectacular and brings back memories of the one shuttle launch I got to attend at KSC in the summer 2007. The STS-119 crew will deliver the S6 power truss, the last major power-related component of the ISS.
