Space shuttle flying over the Ozarks
« on: 11/ 7/07 - 10:45AM »
In this time range : 11:43am - 11:49am  Today 11/11/07

The Space shuttle will be flying over the Ozarks on it way back to Florida... not sure if you'll be able to see it or not, depends on where you are, but I think most will be able to hear the double sonic boom it will set off.

I saw it too.  That was pretty cool.  Looked like a really fast plane with no contrail.  The boom was a little dissapointing but still cool.

same here. I seen and heard it, thought the boom left a little to be desired... but still it was cool. Kinda neat how they can plot a course and now exactly where and when it will be and land it on a little strip all without any power, just momentum. cool stuff.
