Don’t even know if it is real.

I am a great fan of www.thechive.com, and I visit them daily, please don’t expect anything that will help you to increase your IQ or help you to solve your calculus problems, but if you are having a crap day and needed something to put a smirk on your face there is no place better, DAR, FLBP and DMA are just three key words that will become embedded in your brain, trust me… :)

Although I must say it is more orientated towards the male half of the population, for the ladies there is the www.theberry.com.

Anyway, came across this pic (look left) on the Chive… I swear this was one of the stage in the Lara Croft (Tomb Raider) long running saga :)

Just had to re-post it :)

Cheers.

What a Pic! [Arc of Discovery]

CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. – Viewed from the Banana River Viewing Site at NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida, space shuttle Discovery arcs through a cloud-brushed sky lighted by the trail of fire after launch on the STS-128 mission. Liftoff from Launch Pad 39A was on time at 11:59 p.m. EDT. The first launch attempt on Aug. 24 was postponed due to unfavorable weather conditions. The second attempt on Aug. 25 also was postponed due to an issue with a valve in space shuttle Discovery's main propulsion system. The STS-128 mission is the 30th International Space Station assembly flight and the 128th space shuttle flight. The 13-day mission will deliver more than 7 tons of supplies, science racks and equipment, as well as additional environmental hardware to sustain six crew members on the International Space Station. The equipment includes a freezer to store research samples, a new sleeping compartment and the COLBERT treadmill. Photo credit: NASA/Ben Cooper
