Default NASA stuff

Atlantis rolls out to the pad August 29th. Endeavour rolls out to the pad September 23rd.

Atlantis launches October 8th. This will be the last time there will be two shuttles on the launch pad at the same time. Endeavour is the emergency rescue vehicle if something goes wrong with Atlantis since we're going to the hubble telescope and not the space station.

Ok - they say it was water ice on Mars, not carbon dioxide... Interesting. More on this later.

Why anybody would put something outside for over a month in September in central Florida is beyond me. Isn't it the peak of the hurricane season? Of course, we left a shuttle on the pad during a hailstorm last year...
