O'brien "Perpetually Energized" by Launches
CNN Space Correspondent, American Morning Anchor Miles O'brien says in an article in USA Today,"Some people are into NASCAR racing, but this is just as thrilling to me," he said Tuesday after Discovery's liftoff."O'brien also commented on covering today's and future launches, "But there were limits to CNN's coverage, O'Brien says. "As far as different bells and whistles that we offered, there wasn't anything tremendous that stood out. In theory, in the future we could feed multiple camera angles online and people could direct their own launch, which would be nice."
That future was on display Tuesday on CNN sister outlet America Online News, where users could watch the launch live from any of seven different angles. And later they could watch on-demand and voice their opinions.
