This site is located just outside the Kennedy Space Center gates on State Road 405. Viewing of the space shuttle launch takes place outside in a field located directly behind the Astronaut Hall of Fame. From this viewing location, space shuttle Launch Pad 39A is located behind the Vehicle Assembly Building, so you won`t see it sitting on the launch pad,BUT,you will have a direct view of the space shuttle immediately after it has cleared this building following initial lift-off.


Has anyone been there? Is it a good place to watch the launch? The actual Space centre launch is sold out.

Thanks for any help.

RE: Gun light for PS2

You need to have both the ps2 and usb connectors attached to the ps2. The yellow one is connected to the yellow input on the scart adaptor and then the yellow from the ps2 connects to the other end.

RE: BEKO 32WLK530HID Silver 32 inch LCD TV only £100 delivered

I ordered 2 of the TV`s on seperate order numbers with a credit card through google checkout.

I have been reading the HUKD thread on this for 3 weeks now but have not posted. How can I get into the private area to help reclaim my money? I have been a member here for a while and posted a bit but mostly I just read the various threads.

Thanks for any help.

RE: F&%*ing car!!!

This is a common problem on escorts. I had it on a J reg, L reg and N reg. It is just a matter of replacing the indicator/lighting stalks. Inside the lighting stalk are small copper contacts which become corroded/burnt out and because it`s a sealed unit that can`t be fixed but must be replaced.

You have to take off the cover over the steering column and it is all one unit connected by a wiring plug. I got mine off a car parts website, can`t remember which. Cost about £30 odd delivered.

hope this helps.

RE: Hard Disk manufacturer recommendations...

i`ve had several seagates, very reliable drives, but the sata ones seem noisier than the ide ones. Going to plump for western digital next as their sata are often reviewed as silent.

Had maxtor but died after 12months and 1 week( out of warranty by then) so don`t touch them now.

RE: Deforestation: The hidden cause of global warming

I`ve always thought about this. Trees, plants, etc are what produce all of our oxygen and take up our co2. So why cut them all down, we will end up killing ourselves. We need plant life to sustain our planet.

This global warming is nothing to do with us driving, flying etc but destruction of plant life. We are overdue an ice age but first temperatures must rise to trigger it. It is just the natural evolution of the earth. heat then cold then heat then cold and so on. We cannot stop it.

RE: Just moved in...

I had an electricity card meter phoned them saying it was there when I moved in and can they change it. They changed it free of charge. If they want to charge to change the meters just threaten to go to a different supplier.
