Lo, many moons past, on 11 Feb 2004 06:10:35 -0800, a stranger called by some (bart janssens) came forth and told this tale in alt.atheism Did you ever witnessed a Shuttle-launch? Several. I was stationed in Georgia in the the mid-80s, and arranging leave days for the launch windows was pretty easy. Discovery (51-C) http://science.ksc.nasa.gov/shuttle/...sion-51-c.html Discovery (51-D) http://science.ksc.nasa.gov/shuttle/...sion-51-d.html Challenger (51-B) http://science.ksc.nasa.gov/shuttle/...sion-51-b.html Challenger (51-G) http://science.ksc.nasa.gov/shuttle/...sion-51-g.html Discovery (51-I) http://science.ksc.nasa.gov/shuttle/...sion-51-i.html Atlantis (51-J, maiden flight) http://science.ksc.nasa.gov/shuttle/...sion-51-j.html Challenger (51-L, Keep the Dream Alive!) http://science.ksc.nasa.gov/shuttle/...sion-51-l.html Atlantis (STS-36, I had to see a night launch.. wow) http://science.ksc.nasa.gov/shuttle/...on-sts-36.html So I've seen them all launch except Columbia and Endeavour. Yes. I would swear in a court of law that I saw a STS move away from the ISS. Would you swear in a court that the Shuttle disappeared "behind the horizon", when you saw a launch of a Shuttle? |

But I was told that at night launches you could see it shut down engines. I've been fortunate enough to see MECO a few times during night launches. Fascinating to listen to the mission comms and hear "Main Engine CutOff" as the pale blue light winks out. The blinking red "taillights" of the SRB's falling away is quite a site too.

I was riding down an escalator at the mall in Green Bay, WI when I noticed people were clambering for the electronics store windows. We watched it again and again, on television screens of several dimensions and it never got any easier... -- Stephen Home Page: stephmon.com Satellite Hunting: sathunt.com |

What a powerful proof. My posts have now been ignored by him because he has no idea how to respond: he knows he can't explain away the satellite-based telecommunications industry with anything approaching solid evidence. And, he doesn't want to think about what evidence would convince him that stuff does orbit the earth, which proves he's not interested in doing science, just interested in putting forth an unsupportable crackpot notion. So, he sticks to nay-saying whatever you say, and repeating his bogus physics. I still think he's a trickster just trying to get a rise out of folks. |
