well the shuttle lifted off successfully...we can walk outside and look east and see it. We are approx. 50 m iles from the Kennedy Space Center. Here are a few pics i took of todays launch!

below is a series of 3 pics i took to show the entire smoke trail...

here is a portion of one of my pictures at 100% where you can actually see the shuttle itself (i was using a 600mm lens).

Uh oh! They left without me and Voodoo. Guess we'll have to walk back home.

Nice pics Warren. Make sure you complete the set with the returning touchdown at Kennedy.
