Finally we can wear our "I was there" T-shirts! :-D Hopefully you can make out the remains of the trail behind mum & dad. Don't worry, I have (lots) more pictures! ;-) The wind was carrying the noise away from us, so apparently it was one of the quietest launches ever. Oh well, can't have everything!
;-)
Anyway, we're on good terms with the weather, as this morning there was only a 30% chance of a launch due to possible storms (caused by the same system that brought the tornados to other parts of the US).
It was nice to see how busy it gets around launch time, although I'm not sure everyone was quite as excited as us...
:-)
More later...
Congrats, was gonna email ya to wish good luck but didn't want to jinx ya.
ReplyDeleteI guess maybe next year for us.
Tell everyone hello and have a great drive down to Key West.
Mike & Becky

Quick Simon....over your shoulder, quit posing for a photo...you've missed the rocket
ReplyDeleteHi Tom. Gave a cheer (literally) when I heard on the 10pm news that it had launched. Really thought you were in for another disappointment, what with the 70% chance of it being off... anyway WHOOPEE! Just gotta catch the landing now :-)
ReplyDeleteCongratulations :)
ReplyDeleteI am amused at the idea of you all being wildly enthusiastic n00bs XD
