> > I don't know if any of you guys saw it or could have seen it, but when the Shuttle took off last week it was the best one yet. It was about 6:10 in the morning and the sun was just about to peek up for dawn in the East and the moon was a full moon in the West when the shuttle sped up into the sky. So when it was way up there the smoke from it was glistening with orange and violet colors from the sun on one side and illuminating a bright white from the moon on the other side. And of course the bright flames were clearly visible as it jettisoned up. It was quite spectacular and was very thrilling to watch. I'm sorry to say I didn't get it on videotape but i'll never forget it. > > See you for now, Rick}}}}}
> Rick, that is so cool. Were you watching this from your backyard? Man, I wish I could see that. I would be video taping it with my camera of course. ;o)
Of course I was watching it from my backyard Shane. I have a great view to the Northeast's horizon which is across that field behind me which is where the shuttle lifts off from. I wish you could have seen it.
See you for now, Rick
