Ian's Space Shuttle Pages
This index page was created Feb 1, 2003 after the STS-107 Columbia accident.
It was updated Sept 4, 2004 for info on Hurricane Frances' landfall near KSC.
But some pages listed here have existed since my travel in 1997 to
Kennedy Space Center in Florida to watch the launch of STS-86 Atlantis.
On this page...
This information accumulated into its own page,
"Hurricane Frances makes landfall near Cape Canaveral".

which shows the large

This is the story of my trip to view the September 25, 1997 launch

This is the story of my trip to Florida in November 1999, where I got a
tour of one of the Orbiter Processing Facility (OPF) buildings where
Atlantis (the same orbiter I had watched launch 2 years earlier) was
being refurbished between flights.
