Aug 3, 2009 - OMS liquid tank quantities are read in percentages on the MEDS. The pressure side of the tank which is either Helium or nitrogen is read in psia. Tanks are filled in lbs. depending on launch profile. And I think I read somewhere that the direct insertion launch not only gives it a little extra push as you say , but puts it in a better orbit for aborts once orbiter insertion is complete.Just some fun facts.

Quake120 Says:

Aug 26, 2009 - Amen to that!

Quake120 Says:

Aug 26, 2009 - Agreed. The space station, which the shuttle supports, is a monument to what can be accomplished when people set aside their differences and remember that we are all human on this planet, regardless of race or religion. Many countries participated in the construction of the station, including some that were previously enemies. If you can't set aside your differences, you need to seriously grow up and mature a bit.

Quake120 Says:

Aug 26, 2009 - In orbit, they are traveling at ~17,500mph

danhart19z Says:

Aug 26, 2009 - when you atually look at it seems that its barely going 100MPH but when you actually find out you're quite amazed

Sep 12, 2009 - Agreed, putting essentially a football field with scientific equipment, and facilities for 6-13 people to live off of, into orbit, is no easy feat. My hope is when (or perhaps if) the shuttle retires, the ISS will see new visitors such as the new Japanese HTV, more ESA cargo vessels, and Orbital or SpaceX vehicles. It's not just a good place for science, it's a good place to test launch technology.

Sep 12, 2009 - 0:59 I always like seeing the formation of the shock diamonds/cones. They seem really clear this launch.
