One of the perks of living in Florida is that you get a chance to see Space Shuttle Lift Off's! Of course we aren't this close to see it this clearly - Most lift off's we see alittle streak of smoke, Night time lift off's are the best - You see the whole area in the direction of Cape Canaveral light up and then you see it a sreaking ball of fire going higher and higher. We were lucky enough to see one launch where it went up and over our house (Kelly & I had to run to the vet's office so we were on the road when it went over and didn't have our camera but it was truly breath taking to think people were riding in that ball of fire!!!!!
Here is the link for NASA: http://www.nasa.gov/centers/kennedy/home/index.html
Also, We are almost at the peak time for a meter shower:http://spaceweather.com/ I hope to get out one of these nights to see some of them. It is very good veiwing from here not many lights in their area.
