Space shuttle Atlantis.

I missed the final shuttle launch by two minutes as I couldn't find the BBC News channel on the Sky system.  So, here is a link to Nasa's own web site if like me you missed it.  http://www.nasa.gov/mission_pages/shuttle/main/index.html

A quick link for the actual launch video http://www.nasa.gov/multimedia/videogallery/index.html?collection_id=14554&media_id=100309441#

Enjoy, I remember watching the first launch when I was at school so it seemed fitting to follow the progress of the final launch. 

One wonders what next for America and the space programme.

Well done John Higgins

A great snooker final yesterday http://www.worldsnooker.com/page/Home/0,,13165,00.html John Higgins beat Judd Trump 18 - 15 in an exciting match.

Good way to finish off a holiday weekend.......................
