  Korea, China and most other rocket went lauch, go to 100%, no variable. if a problem append. they can't do nothing! NASA shuttle only need 90% on start up and decline it to 70% after getting some speed. NASA engine are desing to work to a 110% after the challenger incident. If you have no control of the throttle of your car, what going inevitely to happen...

  they are practicing for their mission to the sun; as any qualified astronaut will explain, all solar missons are conducted at night. it is just too hot in daytime.

Awesome
Never get tired of watching a successful shuttle launch. If it wasn't for the foam problems, they probably wouldn't retire them in 2010. Fix the foam problem and you could be famous.

i seen it!!
i watched this on my pc, on saturday 1st july it was scrubbed due to the bad weather, then on sunday the 2nd of july it was canceled again also due to poor weather, they then scheduled it for tuesday the 4th july (indipendce day).
i watch all day tuesday for the hype. but if u havent been following th hype then you wont know that 5 peices of debris fell off during launch. the last rocket that went up also had peices fall off, but on re-entry the rocketexploded due to the pices not being there. i damn hope when they come back down from the space station in 12 days time (18th june) that they arrive safely. i cant wait to see and hear what they have to say about the whole experience!!!!

ARGH
It was alright. Way too long. A lot of mumble shit that most don't understand. 1 min. before launch would have been great. It was still good quality video and pretty cool.

- All starts from space!
  The space race contrebuted much to the modern science, and will in the future.
  With that new knowlage, we can develope new medical drugs, find new ways to grow food.
  About unimployment... People should have go to school and get a proper aducation, then, maybe, they could fine a good job.
  It's not the begining of the 20th sentury and pre-industrial revolution times. If you don't have a proper aducation, you are nothing....

I agree
that it is amazing and spectacular... but couldn't the billions and billions that's spent on these shuttle projects be spent on better things like housing or the elderly or under privelidged kids. If we need a satellite in orbit, then send a normal unmanned rocket...i t's a lot cheaper

  .....additionally, space shuttle missions lead to thousands of products and jobs....NASA makes far more money for people than it spends.
