Foam sep at about T plus 2:47 from ET cam.
I recorded the launch. About T plus 2:47 I saw up to 3 different
chunks, of what looked to be foam, separate from the ET moving up and over the wing. If anybody recorded the launch, look back and check to see if you agree.

I don't know about over the wing. Maybe aft, almost like it came from the bottom portion fo the tank under the wing.

In the replay after ET sep I noticed a small white object separate
from the orbiter port side in the wing area. Maybe ice or something like that. With the Sun angle all kinds of stuff was visible with the engine plume tailoff and such.

If anybody recorded the launch, look back and check to see if you agree. I just saw the replay looking down the ET, and I saw 2 instances of foam loss. The first two smaller looking chunks and about 30-45 sec that came off together then later a larger piece that you can see flying away. Cant say if they hit anything. j
