@TheMtaTeam The flares are there to burn any hydrogen that wasn't ignited on start and so it doesn't ignite elsewhere

Why could'nt this have happened for Columbia and Challenger's last flight?

As Rosanne Rosannadanna's Grandmother, Gran Rosannadanna, always said - "Its always something".

@TheMtaTeam It burns away hydrogen gas under the shuttle and prevents it from flashing when the mains ignite.
