Still considering how soft that tile was, may have been enough of a bang... Maybe in the future they could add a "shield" to the bottom of the orbiter to protect the reentry tiles, then dump it once they got to orbit. Just a thought.

Interesting. There is a news conference on now. Lots of foam questions.

The Shuttle admin's body language says to me that he is NOT happy about all of the foam questions.
