Shuttle launch

Post by djalbin »

I've seen lots of space shuttle launch pictures from the ground but this is the first I've seen from the International Space Station.

Great view - would be neat to see a video from that angle, just to be able to see how fast it goes up.

I've seen two launches in person when I lived down there (Melbourne - about 15 miles south of the Cape), one day and one night launch - both neat as heck, but the night one was just spectacular.
