Great work! Do you have videos? I especially like 'amateur' videos of launches, as they convey the 'atmosphere' of the whole thing much better than the official NASA TV coverage. I keep digging amateur videos and posting them on my space blog - portuguese only - http://mlespaco.blogspot.com

I didn't get a video of Atlantis taking off. For the next launch, I will!

I just posted a whole bunch of amateur videos to my blog here: http://mlespaco.blogspot.com/2008/02/mais-videos-amadores-do-lanamento-da.html
It would be great if the people who make these videos could label them as 'AMATEUR VIDEO' or something, then it would be easier to find them all! My favorites are these two:

I'd do anything to be there in person! Man, it must be an amazing sight!
