What an awesome sight 8) 8) Thanks for sharing with us :D :D :D

I lived in Merritt Island in 1964-1965 and I remember that we used to go out on the playground at school and watch the launches---it was soooo cool! I wanted to be an astronaut when I grew up, but my mom told me only men could be----she wasn't much of a woman's libber :D

The night launches are awesome!! I'll try to get pics next time.

Cool! All I ever see in the sky by me is the police helicopter!

I used to live in Ocala, FL and we, too, could see the night launches. Only once did it land in FL and our whole house shook. I had no idea what was happening.

COOL

Where I am I got about 10 sec of that same picture but the clouds were thicker so it was only a 10 sec. view.
I love to watch them but I've seen so many I don't go up there anymore. Up close the ground seems to actually shake. I highly recommend it for visitors.

I saw the launch for the first time last night. What an awesome sight. I felt so proud of our country and what it can accomplish. Great patriotic event.

Thanks for sharing.

here in Winter park I only saw it twice for a split second each, way to cloudy , but I was glad to see a safe lift-off.
