Nobody seems to have video of the actual explosion.
At 200,000 feet the sound of the boom would have taken over 3 minutes to reach those who heard on the ground.
When they heard it and looked up it was more than 3 minutes AFTER the explosion.

Would that indicate that the explosion actually happened BEFORE the video footage we've been seeing? Indicating that it happened during the hi-temp re-entry?

Does anyone have a link to a still shot of the video shown on FOX today, in which it appears the shuttle is coming down sideways before it starts to break up?
