  • i was in satellite beach when i saw this

  • Thanks for the nice video! Didn't know if the sound got as far as Melbourne. Now I know it does.

    Please be advised that the shuttle does NOT go straight up!!! Like every other rocket going into Earth orbit, it makes a smooth arc (starting only seconds into flight) to achieve a speed over the ground of 17,500 mph. This is required for an object to stay in Earth orbit. In fact the last six minutes of the eight minute powered flight are essentially flown HORIZONTAL.

  • increible! awesome!

  • i saw it too,, omfg it was beauiful,,, from where i saw it,,, it was kinda light out and if left the prettyst pink smoke glare behind it
