In the past few months they've been showning stuff several times a week: press conferences, some space sickness studies, sims, the rollout, SRB tests, etc. Whenever a "major" event happens, NASA select will probably cover it. Concerning the mission at hand, STS-26, you can get a mission TV schedule from "COMSTORE", the NASA select BBS. It is at (713) 483-5817, 1200 baud. *** mike *** -- *** mike (starship janitor) smithwick *** "he's braindead Jim. . ." [disclaimer : nope, I don't work for NASA, I take full blame for my ideas]
