| Oh how I would love to go into space! I will definitely be watching! Did they say they are taking off in 20 minutes or am I wrong? |

| We can see them from our pool deck. I've lived in Florida for 25 years & it NEVER gets old. For years I was lucky enough to work at Kennedy Space Center...my cube was in the SSPF & when shuttles landed at Kennedy , they went right past my window...I have met astronauts (wonderful people) & WOW what an experience. My husband is an engineer & has been in shuttles to do wiring etc.....we have had a GREAT life on the Space Coast! |

| We also got to see it when we got out of the resturant we had dinner at. There was a big group of people looking up at the sky and we could see the marks left behind. It was beautiful.

| I was lucky enough to see one from my hotel when I visited Disneyworld. Everybody gathered up on the top of the parking garage. It was an awesome experience for me and my son.

| I love to watch the launches! About 3 years ago I was on a plane coming home from Ft Lauderdale and the pilot came over the speaker and told everyone to look to the left to see the space shuttle! It was a once in a lifetime expereince! I was in the air in an airplane watching the spaceshuttle! I watched out the window of the plane until I couldn't see it any longer in the distance.
