Shuttle Launch

Launches are cool. I got to watch a shuttle launch while standing at the VIB when I was working on the Atlas V launch complex.

She was nice and clear from over in St Pete as well. It still blows me away that you can see that thing as clearly as you can from all the way across the state.

Great pics.

Thats awesome. Every time I have been to Florida I always seem to miss a launch. I was able to see a rocket launch from New Smyrna Beach but that was a good 50 miles or so from the cape. One of these days I gotta go see one.

next time you can watch it from my area in Satellite Beach, isn't there a rocket launch coming up next?
