Whats amazing is that they are a glider. No engine help at all. As I posted in another thread I changed my flight next month to a day earlier so that I can see the night launch of Endeavour. I can't wait.

They kicked it up in the second half/last quarter but it was not enough to save the entire show for me. If the whole thing had been like the last part the sho...
