Discovery STS-121

Discovery STS-121

2 minutes 10 seconds after liftoff - the solid rocket boosters fall away and will be recovered and refurbished for re-use.

It will be another 6 and a half minutes before Discovery reaches 17,500 mph and drops the empty external fuel tank, which tumbles from space and burns up in the atmosphere.
