Off in the distance you can see launch sites 39A (right) and 39B (left - where the shuttle was launched).

About a minute into launch...

Close-up about a minute and a half into launch...
|
Just prior to booster separation...
|
Boosters have separated... can
you see the little white dot? Center horizontally and go up about
a third from the bottom...
|
Post-launch celebration.
And no, that isn't smoke from my head as a result of the dead
batteries - it's left over from the launch! :)
|
We noticed that the vapor trail
from the solid boosters seemed to continue burning well after the
launch. Note the eerie orange glow inside the cloud.

Who's a cutie?
