Space Shuttle's "Return to Flight"

[Ghoulish Delight]

This allows you to select up to three camera angles at a time (there are 11 to choose from) to watch the launch simultaneously. It's a lot of fun.

The current drama is, they are examining the footage from the 100 or so cameras to figure out what one pice of debris that was seen is. It may be a part of a tile. Also seen in the footage was what appeared to be a piece of insulating foam from the fuel tank (which is what hit Columbia causing the fateful damage), but it didn't hit the shuttle. And apparantly the cone took a bird out on the way up.

Part of the problem with determining if that bit of debris is something to worry about is that they've never seen the shuttle from those angles during that part of its flight. So they have no concept of "normal" debris to draw a reference from.
