I was lucky enough to catch the launch of STS-121 on CNN—the regular CNN, not headline news, for what it’s worth—today, and I was pleasantly surprised to see the shuttle’s realtime altitude/speed/distance-covered data superimposed onscreen.
However, the launch video on CNN’s web site doesn’t happen to have that data in it. Dang. Does anyone here know if there’s any place I can find the video that I saw?
