Shuttle Endeavor Night Launch

Drove up to Deltona to pick up my grandson Mikey after school and take him to see Madagascar: Escape 2 Africa, a movie he's been wanting to see ever since he saw the previews on TV. We had a good time together. He always make me happy to be with him.

Got back home to Orlando in time to see the likely last night-time shuttle launch at 7:55 EST. Even from my backyard 50 miles away from the Kennedy Space Center, it was spectacular as, from my viewpoint, the Endeavor arced over the beautiful full moon in a bright, fiery trail.

Night launches are beautiful and, if it's clear, you can still see the shuttle after it reaches orbit. But I always wanted to see one up close and personal. Guess I'm too late as usual.
