@trioofsixes also: nevermind that the government of that era couldn't keep watergate a secret... they tricked the whole world, right? and no one credible has spoken up... must be because the us gov't is so competent...

I really wonder what will happen with NASA since the shuttles have been retired. Amazing ship! I remember visiting both the Johnson Space Center in Houston (Mission Control) and the Kennedy Space Center in Florida.  Fantastic! I got to see Atlantis on the launch pad!

No. I believe this is STS 65, which was a mission for Columbia in 1994. At around 00:32, you'll hear the name Leroy being mentioned. That's Leroy Chiao, who was a mission specialist for this mission. STS 107 was the fateful mission for Columbia and her crew.

Why the guy at the right holds a mirror in his hands?

[Apoic123]

was this the fatefull flight, the columbia space mission that ended in tragedy when the orbiter burned up in space?

[Apoic123]

There's got to be a better way to get man to space.
