Shuttle sky

Originally uploaded by CABridges

One of the best things about living on the east coast of Florida: watching a shuttle launch on the TV at Appleby's and then stepping outside in time to watch it sail across the sky.

Just found this again, browsing through pictures. This is Discovery's STS-119 flight, launched on March 15, 2009.

I'm really going to miss living near the world's only operating spaceport once the shuttle series winds down, and I hope a suitable replacement comes along. And not just for my dinner entertainment.
