Weekly Wrap-Up: Space Shuttle Atlantis Launch Edition
Omaha July 8, 2011 by Michael Stacy
No computer glitches here. Unlike what went on at Cape Caneveral this morning, the launch of the Weekly Wrap-Up was never in doubt.
Danny Schreiber and Jeff Slobotski did their best Armstrong and Aldrin in hosting today's WWU. Danny was decked out in an oh-so appropriate Big Omaha shirt to celebrate the launch of the Space Shuttle Atlantis, and Jeff rocked a Wu-Tang-themed Johnny CupCakes shirt to celebrate … well, that SPN ain't nuthin' ta — ahem — mess with.
On a day filled with commemoration of shuttle launches past, here's a look at what Danny and Jeff commemorated in their review of the week that was on the Silicon Prairie:
