What great beads everyone! It only gets better ...
In case anyone wants to wave at the space monkeys, space dog, space frog, aliens, spaceships and other beads as they fly by in low earth orbit ... use the link I've provided below ... on the left side of the page, under 'Sighting Opportunities' pick your country then follow the links as they narrow it down to your town. It will list the time that it will pass over you and where to look in the sky. It looks like a HUGE moving star. It flew over me tonight, right on schedule!

we look up almost every space flight... if you look just before or after it is attached to the ISS you get to see two dots following each other... that is extra cool... To view links or images in this forum your post count must be 1 or greater. You currently have 0 posts.

I watched the babies go up from my MILs front yard and thought go babies go... I am so proud of the folks who got to have their beads go up. Was kinda nice to watch this launch and feel like I had a little bit of a personal connection to it.
YAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

I watched my tv set and was so happy for Beads of Courage. I had beads go up too and this meant more to me, than other achievements. What fun!

I recorded it on CNN also. Woohoo! and if the Atlantis ends up in a museum, we can go see where our beads were too! (I wonder if BOC would want some of us to donate some similar beads if they would display them as part of what the Atlantis load was?) Could be good pr for them.
