NASA has grounded the shuttle fleet after several pieces of insulating foam fell from the fuel tank during launch. Engineers didn't expect it to fall from this area, according to shuttle program manager John Shannon: More »Space Shuttle Endeavour Delayed By Ferocious Lightning
The little thing at the bottom of this image is the space shuttle Endeavour, which was supposed to launch today. That huge glowing thing is a lightning striking from the sky. Not surprisingly, the launch has been delayed: More »Atlantis' Impossible Take Off On NASA's 747 Mothership
I've seen the shuttle pulling a Moonraker with NASA's modified 747 mothership before—like in this spectacular zenithal shot of Endeavour—but it never ceases to amaze me to see the two of them taking off. More »Atlantis Crew Finishes Hubble Repairs, Celebrates With Early Morning Jam Sesh

Paper cranes are alright, but they won't match our bedsheets.Handmade Scythe Car Looks Like a Toy, is KITT-like Computerized
It may look like one of the wilder fantasy toy cars you used to play with all those years ago, but Scythe is nothing like a toy when you look at its stats. Two steering wheels, twin-supercharged 1,005 horsepower engine, composite body handmade by Galpin Auto Sports, backwards rotating door design and a 3G-connected Shuttle PC inside. This handles realtime traffic and weather monitoring, and is voice activated for some KITT-like chatting car action. There's even a set of flush-mounted external security cameras. OK, so that does make it sound a lot like a toy, but it's a toy for fast-driving grown-up kids. [Jalopnik]Origami Space Shuttles Unveiled, Kids Around the World Hold Their Breath
