Wildfires and Discovery Launch



I found out today by accident, that the Space Shuttle Discovery was launched today on it's way to the ISS again to build on more of the Space Station.

Not a mention on today's news!

It seems that the only way to find out these days are from the NASA site directly including the super NASA TV site.

Only a couple of days ago I was watching the ISS pass overhead, the rest of the country total oblivious to this bright star (without lights) which can't be missed and wonderful to view!

Meanwhile, on the other side of USA, wildfires are causing havoc in California and making the news. The satelite pictures are superb, but again...why don't they show them on TV?

Last week the Russian Soyuz craft docked with the ISS, again...not a mention in the news.
