I just heard that the grounded the fleet again due to debris. There are only 7 or so more flights before the shuttle will be retired. I took the family on a road trip yesterday for the first time. Its something we in Florida take for granted and very few people will ever see. I caught myself with my jaw hanging open while I watched it launch! It was a truly moving thing to watch.
Here is a pic I took, not bad for an amateur at 7 miles out.
