sorry theyre not too detailed. im about 200 miles from the cape so its hard to see. Night launches are much clearer with the massive flame shooting out the back and a huge orange glow coming from the cape when its 1st launching

Cool!

the shuttle also reenters above my house when it lands in FL. double sonic booms, usually at like 5-7 am, shakes the house. Too bad im never outside when its reentering, would be cool to see the glowing shuttle coming in. Infested, i think all the launches are live on the NASA channel if u got cable/sat. Ive never seen discovery chan show a launch but then again i havent really switched to the chan when im expecting a launch. Typically the local stations broadcast it if its not during primetime shit, but nasa chan always shows all the live feed from mission control, shows it on the pad, take off and then they show the cam views from the shuttle (shows seperation etc)

2 days ago I was watering trees in my orchard and 3 C130 cargo planes passed overhead, about 500 feet overhead... it's happening at least once a month with some military activity, by far the best I've seen was a couple of apaches doing some dog fighting... I'll eventually learn to carry my camera.

I lived in Orlando for 4 years. The launches are as clear as a plane takeoff there. They're pretty amazing.
