anyways heres a link to see a live video feed of the launch... This is kind of a big deal considering there will only be 2 more launches this year before obama discontinues the space program... which in my opinion is one of the only useful and important government funded programs!

here's a few more links to read up about it

This is so sad...I love the space shuttles and it sucks they're not going to launch anymore...it's the end of a good era. anyways i'm a big believer in following my dreamz and one dream i have is to watch a space shuttle launch, and i won't be able to fufill it unless i go down to sfo and spend all my money on a flight right now

who thinks it would be cool to see it crash on live TV, but have the astronauts end up being ok?
