On fifth attempt it has finally been launched and is in the orbit :)
I enjoy this mission in particular because it is the one that will help to further build the ISS up by setting up additional solar panels and making the way to expand the ISS to habor 6 permanent members on board.

However it is a joy with a deep grief seeing constant break-ups and strain of resources (material and human)

I want to say to Mr Bush and i think you join me in the statement - if all those hundreds of billions of dollars you spend on wars were spent on scientific developement we would already be on the Moon and possibly on the Mars if not beyond our solar system.
I live in hope to see myself the man putting his foot on the Mars - this alone would make my life and the taxes i payed to my state to be worth living for

Atlantis has finally been launched

Click here and you can watch live coverage of the misson, some from the shuttle, more from misson control. And sometimes sound depending on what is happening.


Try the Pizza@Home project, good crunching.
