Pic of Shuttle launch

It's not all that great- I took it from the front yard. You can't really see too much- the light from the main engines and solid rocket boosters did not show up well but the exhaust trail did.

It took a good 45 seconds to a minute or so before we got a view of it- and pretty much everyone on our cul-de-sac was out and cheering- one of those I love the USA moments.

We watched on Nasa TV last night. My 6 year son is so interested in space since we watched Atalantis launch in June from the Cocoa Beach area. He took his pics from then to school today to show his Kindergarden class.
