The shuttle passes out of range of the kids video camera and crosses into New Mexico. 23 seconds elapse before the next sensor reading provides NASA any kind of useful data.

The shuttle took 1:04 to cross out of Utah, across Arizona, and into New Mexico.

At approx. 13:56:02 GMT the shuttle sent data out, as it entered Arizona airspace. The last bit of data sent from the shuttle while in Arizona came at 13:56:30. That's 28 seconds of data that can be married up (sync.) to the kid's film that was taken from Waputki National Monument.
