The internet and the shuttle

The New York Times reports that NASA has released a detailed map of the Columbia reentry process. Immediately I go over to NASA.gov and download the map onto my own computer. What amazes me is how easily I can get from the reported story to the real source thanks to the internet. How different this flood of information is from the Challenger explosion staggers me.
