> Upon their arrival, the team inspected the damage to the Dodge and the camera gear knocked loose by the explosion.

I don’t get why people keep saying things like this.

The rocket exploded three minutes after the car was damaged, and 25 miles further away. The explosion didn’t knock anything loose.

I would love to see a dodge caravan parked 1400 feet from the SRBs during a space shuttle launch... specifically downstream in the flame trench. That would have been a party!

Why don't we do these things more often? This could be really fun. Reminds me of the time Top Gear tried to get a Tacoma to "stop running".

Yikes! Those are some big hunks of concrete flying 1400'

Nice of the debris to miss the expensive camera gear. ;)
