Debris strikes Space Shuttle...
 

Breaking news on TV...HD video onboard the Shuttle shows debris striking the underside as it reached Mach 3...

Are they goin' down?

"Debris" that most likely was a weapon from an orbiting extra terrestrial craft.

not good.

Shortly after liftoff the camera that shows the main tank and the underside of the shuttle showed a cloud of debris striking the heat shield tiles on Endeavour and leaving some faint white streaks. NASA will be studying the videos and tomorrow will look at the strike area using the robotic arm on the shuttle.

So its out in space now?

Can a rescue craft come and get them?

What network? I see nothing of this yet on cnn.com or foxnews.com.

I was watching the launch on NASA. I didnt see anything out of the ordinary, nor did mission control say anything during the launch.

Hard to say how long it would take to prep a rescue mission...They can probably stay docked to the ISS for awhile, but how long?...

I live in Florida about 50 miles from the Cape...Local stations just broke in with the news.

I'm watching CNN. No mention. Now talking about Shuttle, but nothing about debris striking it.

They were watching the tapes after the shuttle was in orbit and noticed the strike.

Because they're all Michael, all the time.

Has Bruce Willis been called in yet?

Oh, interesting. I sure hope its nothing...
