  • I was there when the Delta II launched! It was awesome!!

  • Great launch! Waiting for the final critical stage of MESSENGER mission, which is the orbital insertion next March 18th. Previous flybys have given great views, but real high-resolution mapping of the innermost planet can only begin after it's in orbit. Considering this is only the second NASA spacecraft to perform a flyby of Mercury (three flybys before orbital insertion), and the first to orbit, it's of historical importance. And should keep us busy until New Horizons flies by Pluto in 2014.

  • SO QUICK!!

  • That's Awesome!

  • wow that thing took off like a bat out of hell

  • cool
