More Questions:
Where did these 'items' come from, off the shuttle? *I.E. the two 'rings' and the foil or metal fabric, and plastic bag?
If these items did not come from the shuttle, what are the chances of something sharing the same orbit and speed as the shuttle?
---
Other questions still unanswered:
How far away from the shuttle was this "shim", when it was caught on video? *If it WAS a shim, one should be able to tell how far away it was and how fast it was moving, BECAUSE they knew how big it is.
Given that they 'think' it is a shim, why doesn't it at times disppear, given its thiness. If the object was tumbling, and not always absoltuely facing the shuttle...
Are shuttle sensors calibrated to account for 'normal' viberations of shuttle operating systems?
Did the crew report 'normal' shutters/viberations, or did they report a 'bump'?
---
Is this story 'over', or does NASA plan any more news conferences to explain what these objects were?

I started the thread as a joke. I didn't think anyone would take it seriously. But then I forgot that KOA posts here.

Put me down for the screaming thing. And a side order of wetting myself, please.

I couldn't help but noticed none of you even tried to provide any answers to the questions I submitted, and in two cases, re-submited.

I guess you missed (or chose to ignore) post #33, then.
I couldn't help but notice that you still have no grasp of elementary physics and no interest in learning, so one's time is better spent educating a tree or a dog - at least those don't cop an attitude.
Congratulations! You're the one millionth educated poster whose clear response has been summarily dismissed by KOA!
Your celebratory cupcakes are in the mail.

BTW, You did an absolutely thorough job of answering, retorting, and rebutting, KOA up one side and down the other, none of which he will acknowledge. But you've already figured out why:
Nicely done.

Response #33 does NOT address the questions I quaried:
Where did these 'items' come from, off the shuttle? *I.E. the two 'rings' and the foil or metal fabric, and plastic bag?
*Where is the NASA site that inventories exactly what was on the shuttle when it left, and was 'missing' when it came back???
If these items did not come from the shuttle, what are the chances of something sharing the same orbit and speed as the shuttle?
*IF the objects did NOT come from the shuttle, then offer an answer to the above question...

Talk about 'ignoring' relative stuff...
NO ONE has tried to aswer these questions:
How far away from the shuttle was this "shim", when it was caught on video? *If it WAS a shim, one should be able to tell how far away it was and how fast it was moving, BECAUSE they knew how big it is.
Given that they 'think' it is a shim, why doesn't it at times disppear, given its relative thiness? (If the object was tumbling, and not always absoltuely facing the shuttle.)
MOREOVER, I think these questions need to be addressed, in order to arrive at an answer as to whether the something 'bumped' into the shuttle...
Are shuttle sensors calibrated to account for 'normal' viberations of shuttle operating systems?
Did the crew report 'normal' shutters/viberations, or did they report a 'bump'?
---
And lastly...
Is this story 'over', or does NASA plan any more news conferences to explain what these objects were?
Where are the hi-res detailed photos & video of these objects?

The story was over the second you decided to turn it into another referendum on your reasoning abilities. You have your answers - simply repeating the same infantile questions over and over will not make any of those answers less correct.
I don't see why you're so uptight about the whole thing... after all, it's not like the Shuttle was orbiting your planet.

No answers...
These questions have NO answers, none that I have been able to locate from NASA, and none that you people here have provided, at least.
Answering these questions, only raises more of them...

I think that was 'square root of a million' that had no answer.
Here's the link to the IFA list website:
http://www.jsc.nasa.gov/news/columbia/anomaly/
It is going to take a while for the IFA list to wind up on the website. They're already a couple of missions behind. But read through those lists and you'll see how incredibly detailed they are. They are essentially a final report on the anomalies so they won't be posted until the anlysis is done. That's going to take some time.
NASA gets upset about this sort of thing and if they can find a way to blame one fo their contractors, they'll do it. They really will investigate the source of the debris and if they can blame Lockheet-Martin, Boeing, etc., they'll do it. These contractors are eligible for an award fee after every mission but if they did something wrong, they can wind up losing tens of thousands of dollars. This is why I believe NASA is going to do their best to find the source of ths problem.
For example, there might have been some debris inadvertently left in the vehicle during ground processing and it came loose when the payload was removed. Anternatively, some piece of insulation or foil or whatever might have been damaged on the ground and later, it would have fallen off the payload while it was being installed onto the station. Anyway, that's what will happen in real live.
NASA will investigate and put the results on their website (eventually). There will be no coverup or whatever.

I was able to find a high-resolution pictures of the debris here:
http://www.nasa.gov/mission_pages/shuttle/multimedia/sts115/fd11/fd11_gallery.html
Hopefully, 3032 x 2064 is enough resolution for the UFO experts.

Here's a UFO nutcase webpage with the usual stupidity about the debris:
http://www.rense.com/general73/sts115.htm
Notice how they didn't bother to find the high-resolution photo from the NASA site. Typical UFO idiot.

Here's the same story from a responsible source:
http://www.space.com/missionlaunches/060919_sts115_landingdelay.html
and these pictures. Notice how the 'ring' turns into the edge of something that looks like a cleaning cloth. I think somebody left a wipe in the payload bay. Either that, or it's a space jellyfish.

I stand corrected on the quote. Frankly, I'm amazed I even got the character right.
Looked through the photos and summaries - not so much as a single word of unusual behavior from the debris or doubt about the thrusters-instead-of-collision theory. I guess they're just not as intelligent as KOA. Why he's not running NASA, I'll never know.
