Welcome STS-135 Tweeps!

SUPER TIP

Where to watch a Shuttle launch from - even if you don't have any kind of "ticket" (tweetup, causeway, etc.)

Announcements

Causeway Tweetup for STS-135: To register, follow @CausewayTweetup & mention you'll be tweeting from the NASA Causeway. See Also: Twitter List
Space View Park Tweetup for STS-135: Registration until July 4! See Also: Google group, Twitter.

The intent of this wiki is to help curate the experience of attending a shuttle launch. There are lots of tweets, blog posts, images, and video flying around the internet, here we are trying to organize a little of that, and also hopefully become a little bit of a centralized resource. The nice thing about this wiki is you can simply log in with your Twitter Account (using OAuth), so all twitter users already have access!

This site was been established during the STS134/Endeavour launch tweetup at KSC, with the hope that it would be used by participants for all future NASA Tweetups! And just because 135 is the last shuttle launch, this does not mean it will be the last tweetup. Did you know there have been ~20 other tweetup events? Click here to see them all.

So, I encourage you to jump right in and be bold! You don't need anyone's permission!

Ad Astra!
