Yes billym, worked for them off and on for many years, I use to be a shuttle tech for many years but gave it up after way over a decade of working out there. The hazards we worked with was killing off my fellow workers a little after they retired, I decided I wanted to get a less stress for job that I could at least retire and live a few more years. I spent many years doing a lot of everything put there and it defiantly a cool place to work but it's all experimental and so is your carer. I have been fortunate to have never been out there during the accidents, but I did go back after Columbia's crash to help in the recovery. The survival suits were a real eye opener when I saw them. It wasn't a pleasant death by any means and my heart goes out to there family. We pulled part of the window out and it had aluminum, titanium, inconel, barilium, stainless steel, copper, boron and carbon fused in the glass. I had never seen anything like that on the planet. There's lot's of things that were bizarre about the crash, all over a big piece of foam.

What ever happened to the space lightning photos?

Most all videos and pictures are not only recorded on board but also sent telemetry back. I'm not sure if they were doing the lightning observations on that flight or not (didn't keep track of everything) but I know we had the mads recorder come back intact and the holy video. I call it the holy video because it was a camcorder tape that made it through reentry (plus 3000 degrees on the nose), fell to earth at terminal velocity and stayed out in the field in rain and heat for months and played the last photos of them playing around before they secured for reentry. It was almost like a farewell video. Kinda of freaky.

They aren't buried anyplace conspiratorial if that is what you are asking about- I saw them on Discover or National Geographic Channel about a month ago.

Strange Photo. Doesn't look like camera shake on a time lapse photo to me.
