It was a thing of beauty to watch! It still gives me goose bumps!! My thoughts and prayers are with the crew and all involved on this return to space!!
Did the shuttle take off in a different direction ? I usually see the launch from my front porch.
I live in Punta Gorda Fl and can see the space shuttle for quite some time.

LOL. I had to travel today and stopped the car at 10:30 and pulled into a motel to watch it on the TV in their lobby. They thought I was some kind of kook.
