Something will go wrong. The space shuttle will burn up or explode. There will be a great loss of life.
But the US will not even notice.
Why?
Because they will all be glued to the television sets, watching the wedding of the century (one of which happens very decade or so) between Prince William and Kate Middleton. Of course, why so many are watching a wedding of the royal family of the county we tried so hard to escape in the late 1700s is a mystery to me.

I'm quite sure that footage of the royal wedding will be interrupted by something as devastating at another space shuttle exploding, especially with Gifford's husband on board. Do keep in mind that the wedding won't be 'live' here in the US when the shuttle launches.

Although I am -highly- disappointed in obama's cancelling of the moon trip, you can't blame obama for the end of the shuttle program
That has been going on since they first started it, knowing there is an end date and no president or congress has ever tried to extend it.
Bush, Clinton Bush1, Reagen..none.
I think the shuttles are outdated, however, we should have been making a new and better model for the last 10 years now...
grrr

So you think she was warning us about the Space Shuttle exploding?
"tickin' on and on' everybody rushin'"
(every is rushing for the launch countdown which is ticking)
"Cruisin' so fast, I want to fly"
(the Space Shuttle launching fast into the air)
"Friday, Friday, gettin' down on Friday"
(the Space Shuttle explodes, and all its parts fall down to the Earth)
I'm not really serious here, but I wanted to show you that, lol.
