Just found this and it's a good read, the NASA management should have listened to Bob Ebeling and his engineers about the O rings and the cold weather on that fatal launch.

That's episode 2 watched and they all died because of dodgy O rings on the boosters, I feel sad for Christa McAuliffe the first non-professional teacher astronaut to be chosen and she loses her life with the others, so sad.

That's the first episode seen, sad really with the loss of life but looking forward to the other 3 episodes, some lovely space shots in it also.

@nudge put me onto this one, a documentary called Challenger: The Final Flight - Episodes 1 to 4 on Netflix so if there are any space/astronomy nutters out there then watch it, into episode one at the moment - Space for Everyone

Cheers just joined Netflix on this laptop so I will be watching all 4 episodes with my earphones on while the wife is watching her bloody Bride shows and whatnot.

Cape Fear - 1991 with De Nero and Nick Nolte, one of my favourite films and never goes a miss, top Mark's for me.

The Tigers came good in the last quarter and your Cats stamina vanished, up to the 3rd quarter you played good but the last 20 minutes you were fucked and Lynch & Martin destroyed you lot in a 2 man show, hard luck Phill, better luck next season to stop Richmond winning 3 in a row.

Low scoring game but the Cats are dominating so far.

Well, that's me settling down on the sofa with a cup of coffee watching the Australian Football Grand Final Geelong (Cats) v Richmond (Tigers), it should be a good game.

NASA/JPL EYES 433 Eros - Asteroid Eros (minor-planet designation: 433 Eros), provisional designation 1898 DQ, is a stony and elongated asteroid of the Amor group and the first discovered and second-largest near-Earth object with a mean diameter of approximately 16.8 kilometres. Visited by the NEAR Shoemaker space probe in 1998, it became the first asteroid ever studied from orbit. The eccentric asteroid was discovered by German astronomer Carl Gustav Witt at the Berlin Observatory on 13 August 1898 and later named after Eros, a god from Greek mythology; the son of Aphrodite who is identified with the planet Venus. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/433_Eros
