Amazing footage of a recent shuttle launch, taken from numerous cameras on the SRBs and elsewhere. If you have the patience to let the video buffer a bit, the launch is around 3:00 in. The SRB separations at 5:13 and 5:40 are particularly spectacular, to those of you that dig this kinda stuff anyway.

Petition to rejoin the big bun fight
Hi RAZD!
Thanks for the gentle nudge to come back to EVC
I have discovered that the only substantial intellectual discourse I found since vanishing from here was from visits to Granny Magda's, and as that doesn't come often enough, I guess I'd better rejoin you guys here.
I'll try to rejoin participation in the fight for rationalism over fantasy (on the side of rationalism I should note) gradually over the next week.
Hope you've been well! I'd LOVE to visit the assembly building, and/or see a launch, but until then I'll just have to keep watching videos and pretending I'm Buck Rogers
Speak to ya soon!

And, to stay on the topic of the thread... I found a wonderful quote about space exploration...
