After two previously failed attempts to see a space shuttle launch, I drove back to Florida from Dallas Saturday and Sunday. I arrived at my pre-determined viewing area around 11pm Sunday for the 9am Monday launch. And it happened!!!
It was cloudy at launch time (though clearer about 20 minutes before and after), so I only got about 20 seconds of video. No stills because I was forced to scramble into a new position at T minus 30 seconds. Thus I only grabbed video because at least stills can be captured from that. However, due to the rushed shooting the view and clarity aren't so great. But I saw it live, and that's the important thing.
YouTube video is here.
