Just to further complicate matters, SpaceX is planning to
launch within minutes of the Shuttle's launch.


Fortunantly, this is on the other side of the planet,


To a polar orbit yes?

but frantic space cadets trying to follow both events could bring
down the Internet...


Speaking of which, are SpaceX webcasting this one?

The Ides Of July have come, but not yet gone... and we all remember who
this month is named for.
It is rumored that a lion was seen near the launch pad last night with a
dead bird in its mouth, and that the shade of Wernher von Braun did
appear, wreathed in blue fire as he leaked liquid hydrogen from many wounds.
Beware, beware! ;-)
