Launch?



Here's to a break in the clouds so Shuttle Discovery can safely take off tonight at 9:35 EST.

One of the benefits of being a Floridian is being able to see the shuttle launches and, let me tell you, the night launches are spectacular.

  5. Morning, Cube. Was dealing with stopped up drains! But I figured it wouldn't go, cloud deck was wayyyyy to heavy and and the wind was picking up in speed!
    Living so close I get the same weather!
    Good morning, G*D bless and Maranatha!

  8. woman: the lift off was scrubbed.

    tlm: ahem, it's a good view for us central Floridians. Happy? ;-)

    tmw: it was all about the weather.

    jamie: it looks like a giant candle. I think the next attempt will be Saturday night.

    Shooting stars are pretty cool too.
