    So, the launch came & went..............

    First, there was this fat & ugly biker chick (yes, a female, Trev) who started yelling like 5 minutes before the launch "it's off, it's off, just heard it on the fisherman's radio channel - they got a computer glitch". Some people believed her but came back in a couple of minutes.

    The launch took place right on the button, we saw the rocket when it like a 1/3 of a mile up already. It looked pretty faint because it was still a broad daylight. Some 40 seconds later it got into the cloud and I never saw it again, basically.

    My video sucks as I never really learned how to use my Nikon properly aside from macro shots.

    All in all, a pretty unspectacular launch to me but I'm glad they are up and running. God bring them back safely soon.

    It was Discovery's last launch.

    Endeavour and Atlantis are still scheduled to fly later this year.

    I envy you watching it. Even 15 miles away I would expect you could still hear it, no?
