    I know what it WASN'T Kathy...it wasn't flung monkey-poo.
    Seriously, whatever it was didn't strike the shuttle itself...just peeled away. Might have been a sheet of ice. They're gonna check it out while in orbit

    You are right about that Robbie ,these monkey feet stay planted on earth.

    Thanks for the reply Robbie and hope it was just that ice .

    Kathy, your family has a long and distinguished history as space explorers.
    From http://www.spacetoday.org/Astronauts/Animals:
    "The very first primates ever fired to an altitude near space were the monkeys Albert 1 and Albert 2. They died in 1949 in the nose cones of captured German V-2 rockets during U.S. launch tests.
    The V-2 rockets carried Air Force Aero Medical Laboratory monkeys named Albert I, II, III, and IV high in the atmosphere to see how they might withstand space conditions. All of the monkeys survived the upward trip, but were killed when parachutes failed to open and the nose cones impacted the ground."
    Ouch

    Can you believe it's been almost 20 years since the Shuttle Challenger exploded? Remember Christa McAuliffe's back up, Barbara Morgan? She's scheduled to go up in space, finally after waiting 20 years, next year.

    Jehovah made the right call, Richie. The taxpayers couldn't afford the extra fuel to get you into orbit.
