The big outside countdown clock for manned missions has been retired
On Tuesday, David Spain quipped:
Besides we don't have countdown clocks for commercial airline, train or bus
departures. Looking forward to the day when the same can be said for space
travel.
Only true in a very narrow sense of a *timer* display (instead of a
time display) that is continously updated.

On the other hand, how many of set the countdown timer on our phones to
make sure we get to the gate soon enough?
